I dont mean to step on your post but r12 or 134a or the substitutes are not deadly unless passed through a flame when they are converted to fozgene gas. But its aganist the law to disperse these refridgerents into the atmosfear. Its def. better to have it recovered by a shop!

I've heard of someone letting out their refrigerant, and starting their car not too long after. The little bit in the air got sucked into the engine and R12 + combustion = no bueno.

The only one i needed to replace was the larger dark on in the pic which was i think a M12x1.5 bolt this of course used to be the banjo bolt. the other 5 i actually re-used from the hard lines and after thoroughly cleaning them just filled them with permatex "cold weld" which is like J.B. weld only in my opinion a thousand times better. and it worked great then it was just a matter of putting them all back in the holes. if you want to replace them all the smaller ones are M12x1.0 and the other large one is M16x1.0 or 1.5 I found that these thread and bolt sizes are extremely hard to come by unless you know of a bolt place that specializes in metric sizes..

LOL if it gets pulled in the intake and burns it is converted to fosgene gas. But you will know what to do becouse it will cut off you breathing in a split secound and you will exit for fresh air! I laugh becouse im in the air/ heat business and it only takes ounce and you know!
