    AC Refill Fj62 R12 or 134?

    Hey Guys, My AC has always worked pretty well. Right now the magnetic clutch isn't engaging and after going through the FSM, most likely its because of not having enough oil in there which doesn't give it the pressure it likes to have. I can't see anything through the little sightglass. -...
