why don't you go to that place the place that put in a/c air and ask them, or you can by and do it yourself from the auto stores. Be sure your air number is like 128 something like that, check your owner manual.

shouldnt cost you anymore than 40-45 bucks...
have them check to see if you have any leaks though...

you can buy them and replace it yourself without go to the repair shop? that sample?

TD,

For '92 model, they use R12 which costs you about $25/lb compare to R134a which costs about $5/lb.

You also have the option to convert to R134a but I do not recommend it since it's not efficient as the R12.

If your system is ok, I think your car takes about 2.5lbs of R12 plus about $25 for labor....so go figure from there.

Good luck,

Nam

Remember, you can't buy R12 Freon from Auto stores, you must have a valid machanic liscence to buy R12. However, You can buy r134a Freon from any auto store. Usually 1994 or new model use R134A Freon.
It will cost you about 80-100 bucks to recharge your AC system.
