Pesky Duracool/butane Leaked. IMO the Brochure Babble about the Butane having a 'larger' less leak prone molecule was simply that: Babble.
Yes one can Mix it. Given that Duracool (etc)is intended as a retrofit add-on to an R134A charge. It's claimed 100% compatible.
Pissed me off actually.
A NO previous leak system (years).. immediately.. started leaking with it's Duracool refill. NO other changes.
I was after mo' efficiency, in a working system.
Chased the leaks for an entire summer.. complete utter waste of time, as it turned out.
Adding in a can of R134a helped.. quite a bit ! leak wise.
Gone from a can per month leakage! to non readable leakage.. so far.
Early days yet.. but By Jove I think I'm found a Fix :-)
NO other changes, except Refrigerant.
Seems as a correlation to me. But then I'm just some pore Shmuck at the paying end of the chain.
Gotta love dealing with Automobiles and the 10,000 Quacks out there in the Aftermarket.. Most of them Lying thru their teeth.
