When I bought my car last year, before the restoration, I had the a/c checked. Everything was okay, except for the R12 that was almost totally gone. Since R12 is also illegal in Holland nowadays, the filled her up with R416a. Same cooling abilities as the R12, but environmental friendly and legal. She really blows ice cold air again! Quick question for you all, how do I get the side vents in the dash to really blow some air again? Most of the ice cold air is coming from the mid vent in the dash.
