How to recharge AC system properly and evacuate. The vehicle in this video is a Honda civic. The air conditioning is very similar on most cars. The difference is you just have to adjust the amount of refrigerant you are using and find the low and high side ports. In this vehicle I used RedTek 12a refrigerant. It is compatible with R12 and R134a. Make sure you are using the right type of refrigerant. Amazon.com For the charge hose w/gauge https://amzn.to/44p7SQu If you need a new compressor https://amzn.to/36dJQ2j Amazon.ca charge hose w/ gauge https://amzn.to/43vKoI9 Refrigerant 134a is now on Amazon.ca https://amzn.to/3JSia3G This is a replacement for 134a, it's a different product and does work, as I have used it. https://amzn.to/3bt91jD If you are doing this to a 2016 or newer civic you need 1234yf refrigerant, the connector is different. https://amzn.to/3kAJvdF or if you already have the gauges just get the connector https://amzn.to/3FeLPAl For the 1234yf refrigerant https://amzn.to/3ye3iHS If you do not feel comfortable do not attempt, please take your vehicle to a professional mechanic. You assume all risks when attempting this procedure on your vehicle. #garageking
