I really don't see the point except to make profit by selling at a higher price and therefore making profit for the seller. What's the "magic" ingredient in "Arctic Freeze"? Quote Selected
Re: Artic Freeze 134A Reply #2 – June 24, 2014, 10:03:16 am I think it should work well (yes, compatible). I think this is the stuff that they sell with the hose/adapter attached such that you just fit it on the A/C port and recharge the system. If so, I have done it and it worked well for me.

Re: Artic Freeze 134A Reply #4 – June 24, 2014, 12:48:55 pm Bill,I lost a bit of refrigerant when I relocated a receiver dryer from one side of the frame tube to the other to install our extra storage compartment behind the rear wheel while at Xtreme. When we got to Tucson, I got a can of that stuff with the attached hose and gage. I didn't have my gage set with me, though I had a ton of tools with me. Too bad I didn't need the stuff while at your shop! Pretty sure you have a gage set... I used it, but it was a pain due to the location of the valve and the shortness of the hose. It did work though... Before that the A/C was barely functional. Your valve may be in a better location. The stuff does come without the gage and hose though and I have 3 cans of it. I will get out the gage set and check out the system before we leave for Canada.Don Quote Selected
