Hi everyone.

Can anyone please tell me if there is a substitute or fix i can use for the A/C gas instead of the R12. I’ve been told that R414B but i can’t find it here.

      When R12 was being phased out in Australia (and the US I believe) A\C systems were changed to use R134a. I’ve never met anyone who has had\used R414B although I’ve read that it is meant to be a direct replacement for R12. R134a is the gas now used in car A\C systems but there is a bit of work & cost to convert an old system properly.
