*Honestly* it is a waste of precious R12. Perhaps you can use R134a or Duracool or something and save the Ozone and sell that R12 for someone who needs it for it's intended purpose.


Correct... but finding an R-12 system is fairly rare these days... well, except farm equipment... they were the last thing to change over, and they tend to leak more than automotive systems because of all the prolonged vibration and working in extreme heat...

For rocket propellant, canned air is hard to beat...

Ask Wes at Dr. Zooch with any questions... he was tinkering with these cold power motors and did some tests with them...
