Where can I get a/c charged in WPB area? Guys, I had the a/c system evacuated back when I pulled the motor (ALOMOST 2 YEARS AGO!), and I'm finally gonna get it refilled. I stopped by a couple of places today, and they wanted $180 just to fill it!
I might do this myself, but does anyone know where I can get it done for a good price, under $100??

Question is where can you get it pumped down, since
you really don't know what's in there at this point. A
pressurized system will stay pressurized but the seals
are really not meant to hold vacuum for long. How much
swamp steam got in as it bled up to ambient pressure?
Filling, you can get a $29 kit at Wal-Mart and another
can of juice for about $7 if the one isn't enough. But
the vacuum / recycle rig is looking to get paid for and
they know they have you on that one. This is where
your muffler shop buddy after hours, bring a 6-pack,
looks mighty good.
