    Well it was a typo, but unfortunatlly not on the 12a, it was not a 16oz can, it was a 6oz can, and I have put 2 in. Its sold under the name Red Tek 12a Refrigernant. I honestly did not look to see what it was made from. Local auto parts store Lordco (same thing as like O-Riely's in the states) sells it for 8.99 a can. We use the same stuff in our Blazer about once a year it takes a can. Normally we use Duracool, but bought this instead. I knew a guy back in the day when R12 was just going away, was mixing his own refrigerant for R12 cars I think it was Propane and Butane plus something else. However he has long since stopped doing it. I am guessing that this Red Tek was not a good idea to put in the GTP's System. Well I guess in for a penny in for a pound, and I'll toss in a 3rd can tomorrow. If its going to burn up the AC System at least it will run cool while its doing it. I don't think I'll be able to undo any damage that has already been done.

    New GTP Owner. Totally Stock. Yes I am keeping the motor in the GTP, No I am not stealing it for one of my Fiero's. Car Details; 2000 GTP 3800 S/C Auto. Bose Audio. There have been Zero mods done to the car, so starting from a clean slate.
