Bought an 1986 Nissan D21 with 3.0L V6 a while back. It was parked in an outbuilding for near a decade from when the owner passed. Had 80k miles when purchased. I have been working my way through maintenence and repair issues and have a well running vehicle now. Wife wanted something to haul limbs/grass/nursery supplies and it does well for that task. She discovered the AC wasn't functioning and directed me to correct the problem. I checked the system and had some refrigerant pressure but not enough. I could not find any R12 but did find some Canadian replacement with UV dye. Two six ounce cans were $45 and I modified the ports on the truck for my line set and added most of both cans to get to 40psi cycling to 22psi on the low side. The condensor inlet tenperature was 87F and the duct outlet temperature ran from 40F to 49F depending speed and environmental factors. I was told later that the refrigerant is Butane on this retrofit gas. Is this true? Seems to work but also seems like a helluva price markup too. Any thoughts?
