r12 sucks.. its such a hassle. i have refrigerant license and i dont even use it. if you ever have to service it (and you probably will, multiple times), you're kinda SOL. if its r134 you just drag yourself down to any parts store/walmart/gas station/supermarket/hardware store and get a can and you're on your way with cold air again.

it seems like damn near 9/10 people lose their first charge to leaks they didnt find the first time. id rather lose a 20 dollar charge of r134a than a 100 dollar charge of r12. id very stongly suggest you pump a can of r134a and leak dye into your car before paying a shop to recharge.

ES12a is compatible with r134a, so sure why not. it does work better.
