Am I right in thinking that you're contemplating filling an R12 system with R134?

I don't think the two systems are compatible without modification - hopefully an expert in AC will confirm?

That aside, for the price of a DIY can, the system can be re-filled professionally for similar money and you've got some comeback. Something a can that claims to fix leaks, ect won't.

If you do decide upon the DIY route, and end up taking it somewhere to be put right afterwards, then please follow the advice in the following links.
