    Used Snap-on PolarTek A/C Machine- worth buying?

    As long as you have a place to reclaim the refrigerant in a timely and cost effective manner. You have done more work in the past 19 years than I likely will. I move often and just don't have anyone to "go to". I don't have the time to play games, so thought to buy this machine. Now I found...
