I purchased a kit to convert my A/C from R12 to R134a. It seems pretty straightforward. Problem is, I can't find a mechanic willing to check for and recover any remaining R12 and flush the system. They are only willing to do it if I also pay them for the conversion to R134a. Which is way too expensive for me at this time. Who does this type of thing? Thanks.

Shops certified to do the recovery. This is akin to taking your own food to a restaraunt and asking them to cook it for you. They have to store and dispose of the R-12, so it isnt worth it to them unless they can make a few bucks on the conversion, it is a business after all
