[DML] Re: R22 In Automobiles

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've always heard that auto A/C compressors can't pump R22. Apparently
some people tried when the R12 stink first came up with negative results.

Some people did try LP with good results (cooling wise...). That's why
A/C shops are reluctant to add your charge to their supply unless they
know the car.
