No. An AC unit is a closed system. It is braised closed with high temperature welds. If it gets low on freon, there is a leak. Running your unit can burn up your compressor.

Can a 10 year old beat up a 16 year old?

Yes, in a few cases a 10 year old can be physically larger than a 16 year old and can win in a physical fight with the 16 year old. However, it is much wiser and more mature not to engage in a fight unless absolutely necessary.


Is R-134A as Freon?

It replaced R-12 and Freon as a refrigerant. It is not always compatible with the old R-12 or Freon systems though, so check with the vehicle's dealer about compatibility and/or conversion.
