I appreciate the attempt to give advice, but I think you're a tad confused.

1) As I mentioned, the sealer is the kind that swells seals. Not the kind that clogs cracks with particles.

2) Releasing freon (R12) is illegal. Releasing R134a is not, as it is NOT freon. It is ozone friendly, and while I agree that it should be recovered by a qualified professional and the system be vacuumed out -- I won't be doing that because:
a) I'm cheap.
B) It will cut down on head pressures if I don't evacuate the system entirely before I fill it with 454g, instead of 754g. The gas is efficient enough to have the same results as OEM when using 35% of the reccomended fill.
c) I'm cheap.
