I does not allow you to recover from a vehicle. Just buy and enter into a sealed system, including R12.
Sure, but most people don't know that as of Jan 1st this year, you can't just go to Autozone or Amazon and get the 30 pound tank. It came suddenly and mostly unreported.

I had looked at the 609 test, and decided against it because I wasn't going back to R-12. Now...maybe I'll have to look at it, since my most recent #30 of R-134 is nearly empty
