don't be a fool man

haven't you been listening @ all

R12 is for R12 systems

R134a is for R134a systems

DONT mix the two or your compressor wont like it

my mate also says you cant get R12 anymore and its been like that for years so if there saying its R12 its prolly one of the substitutes

if you want to waste $170 on getting that then go right ahead but i did tell you earlier my mate can do it for $50

hrmm the place you told me, down lonsdale. alright madaz can u ask ur mate if he can regas mine than and when and where could he do it. thanks

ok mate, just rang him he said by next weekend as hes on holidays and will go into work next week and get some gas

If you have r12 which is an old gas you will need to swap it over to the new gas R134a

and if you need a regas you have a leak.

so you need to pump some nitro through it to see where it is. most of the time its the o rings on the flair nuts so just tighten so of the connections and hose fittings up.

To see if you need some refrigerant check the sight glass on the silver tank looking thing [drier] and see if its got a full charge of liquid do this while the car is running and the AC is on. also check to see if your condenser fan kicks in.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
