If he says yes I'm gonna need an oxygen tank.

"Hmm. Ask him if he's the dragon reborn." "What?" "Just do it." ".......He said yes." "Tell him you are not darklings. He should open up." ".......Sweet. Thanks." "No problem." |

There's a lot of reasons as to why .There's not much you can snip on a radiator that would make a mist like that. There's actually nothing on your radiator that needs to be snipped to be removed. If you cut into your AC condenser, then given that your car is a 94, you would be releasing R-12 into the atmosphere, so thanks for destroying the Ozone and the world we live on. --------------------  |

94 is R134a, they stopped filling R12 from the factory for 94 model years.

so did anyone have an answer for the kid? I don't know it myself, but I'm also not talking junk at him either.

He never confirmed with us if it was really the radiator or not. We can't help him without more information, so R134a is the best answer we can supply, given the information presented.

Well seeing as white mist isnt coming out of your radiator anytimes soon, lets assume that it was the AC condenser; Your going to need to fix that snip. If you want AC atleast. Then go down to your local autozone and tell em you wanna refill your AC. They'll point you right to what you need. I like the Artic Chill stuff... But that's just because there is a polar bear on the front and i asume that if a polar bear endorses this product, it must be good.
Till i see an endorsement from a penguin, i'm staying with artic chill... -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW!
