MH>That's good to know.  I could never find a "total capacity"
of R134a coolant

MH>"cold", takes awhile to get cool, or only blows cold on 1/2
of the vents
MH>(passenger side), a 19oz can will always bring it back to life.  Sometimes a

There somewhere under the Hood be a sticker with he Freon requirement on
it.
At least I have seen it on several of my cars. Here in California
their EPA requires more information. Th rest of the country is catching
up but at one time the manfactures had to build a special model for sale
in Califronia. Adn when you brought in a Non Califronia Model and
reqistered it you paid a Smog TAX over and above all the other fees for
the car.
