Still looking for a ac shop that reclaims or recovers r12. One guy told me I should change out the receiver / dryer if I am going to evacuate the system. He states it is very inexpensive and it acts as a filter for impurities and removes moisture from the system as well as a reservoir. My system cools very well although it is a tad low on freon and has not been opened to air since 1991. Any thoughts. I hate to fix things that are not broken.

Talking

If the ac is working, and cold, and just a bit low on freon, leave it alone.

The receiver/dryer should only by replaced when the system needs to be opened, like fixing a broken hose.

I like your thinking but remember I am going to replace the high pressure switch and the system will be open. Not for long I hope. Just long enough to unscrew the switch and put the new one in. Vacuum the system and then recharge it. What is your feeling on that? Thanks.

Vacuum it down for a full hour, and this will remove 98% of the moisure in there. Then recharge it. Are you going to refill with the "very" expensive R-12 ??
