The price of R12 was getting so high for a while I was wondering how long before the meth cooks decide to branch out...

Would have got the firing squad for R-12

Imagine all the old ladies who could have kept their air conditioners running with that stuff.

What a monster!

As we can clearly learn from all of this... we know exactly where are funds and attention are being focused.

80 years in jail for smuggling R-22? Just think: Free hot meals, free fitness, free housing, etc.

Yet some delinquent can beat the crap out of a child and get locked away for the amount of time I can count on one hand.

dumbass, should have just handed a couple of jugs of R22 ( which I can still buy over the counter ~~even after being retired ) to a couple children and told them to march their happy asses across the border, hell, no one would have even noticed.

OR

Take a jug of R22 and strap a 30lb bag of Fentanyl to it, again, no one would have noticed

I once had an AC leak in my Mustang...............a local A&P mechanic FROM GRIFFISS AFB, filled the system with common propane from a gas grill tank.

Worked great..very very cold!!.............. slight smell from evaporator core, under dash was noted.
Smoking with windows up, was discouraged until system bled down.

Many people still repair their own AC, and let the gas out to target libs.

Propane for the win.
