A/C: Emergency!! summer!!

[liqourish]

ok my ac doesnt work. (another problem with my car lol) and when i press the ac the rpms doesnt jump at all and does nothing. i think i have a leak in the mini radiator (front of the radiator). where would i get freon and how would i put it in? im going trough hell with global warming hitting like 100 degrees lol.
and is it possible to fix and refill freon by myself? shops are charging me 75$ to diagnose then fix it if fixable lol. (noway)

Not sure, but a refill kit is only like 30 bucks with a gauge. It is a really simple thing to do. I bought mine at auto zone. You fill where there is a red and black cap far left where there are the foam covered lines.

you can't buy R12 anymore unless you're a licensed mechanic...

ok i found out that i have a cracked condenser. if i replaced that and get a mechanic to throw some freon r12 will it work as usuall or would other parts be trashed because the there wasnt enuff freon in the lines?

you will need a drier and then pull a vacuum on it, put some ester oil in it and fill it with 134A
