Small update.
Small update.
Result is it works!! Not as cold as a proper A/C recharge, you know vacuum down the system and full re-gas, but it works enough to warrant being a viable alternative to silly money at the garage.
The 2 cars used so little of the can there is easy enough left for a couple more re-charges.
So pleased I bought the Celica a nice set of new alloys - 4 for £200 new can't be bad.
All the little annoying things have been sorted, new breaks all round - pads and disks all OEM as Toyota know best, very very easy job to replace. Feels good to work on my car again rather then pay someone to do it for me.
Celica is NOT going to be sold now I am almost liking the car again :blink:

totally worn out and broken, shouting 'Holy ****, WHAT A RIDE!'"
