What kind of freon do I put in my 1999 Ford Contour SE?

Question

my a/c is out and i'm trying to find out which freon to add but its not labeled anywhere on my car.

Answer 1

It's actually R-134a, and if you do not know what your doing i would take it to a shop. THe A/C has a leak somewhere because the refrigerant just doesnt run out.

Answer 2

The correct refridgerent is R-134a.Ive been working on vehicles for many years and i still wont touch the air conditioning setup.This needs to be done by a trained mechainc.That stuff you see on the store shelf??"Dont bother with it!! They make it sound easier than it actually is.Too much refridgerent and it wont work and may become dangerous,too little and it wont work.It has to be just perfectly filled.You need to take it to a shop.
