Patrick B.....

Apology accepted.

I admitted to Enviro safe (Randy) that i over torqued the fitting, which is why I was surprised at his comments.....but I'll leave that story alone.

After further research, what concerns me is that Enviro Safe appears to be the same hydrocarbon formulation as Duracool, etc, which is illegal for use in cars, according to the EPA. While I am the antithesis of someone who believes that "government is good for you", I am concerned about using a product that is highly flammable and illegal.

I have owned enough Porsches to know that refrigerant leakage is a problem. Freon 12 is too expensive to constantly replace; 134 (and Freeze 12) leaks worse than Freon 12, and the hydrocarbons are illegal and highly flammable.

I AM frustrated with trying to find the solution to the puzzle.

On the other hand, I am such a nerd that I won't drive my oil cooled cars when the temp is over 90 degrees. The sunroof works just fine.
