What is the R12 replacement based on propane that people here on the list have
been using?
I can't recall the name.
I have a coworker who is into old Toyotas, and he has one that needs some major
AC work and he doesn't want to convert it to R134a due to the crappy
performance he's seen in
Dura cool, auto frost, there are several

Use the Industrial ES-12….it’s a lot colder. You’ll havce to spring for hazmat
shipping, but it’s worth it.

AND, order it directly from the factory.

Tried duracool and last time I ordered it stuff didnt seem to work

Autofrost R406A?
I think Duracool and Envirosafe are among the propane/isobutane blends.
Jim Cathey seems to like him homeblended iso/propane nix, maybe it's
just too hot where you are? As demand
I think a 30lb equivalent of R406a is about $200 delivered. The two can
kit is way high, something like $50 for two cans, tapper, and fittings.
Homebrew is about $8 per fillup. Right around what you used to
be able to do R12 for.

I'm in pretty much the same boat, my 190D's AC gets sort of cool but thats it,
I expect its low.
Is there a good way to tell if its been converted to 134?

I'm wondering if you maybe didn't just overcharge with duracool,
Kaleb. IIRC, quantities charge pressure are supposed to be
considerably lower with HC replacements.

It's supposed to have different fittings screwed into it.
Another way is if the system fails grotesquely in a year or two.
If so, it was converted! (Yes, I have an opinion. I un-converted
