Yes, although it is illegal in the UK to knowingly vent AC gas into the atmosphere, and without the right equipment you cant refill it

Very nice work, looking
Now about that filter. . .
Theres always one lol
It came with the car and im currently hunting for a teggy box
-
Ok so heres the deal, I left the car in the workshop overnight as i borrowed the firms van, when i opened up this morning i went to turn the key and she wouldnt start. Turning and turning but nothing,
occasionly shell flutter and all sorts then get going on a normal idle.
I can then raise the revs slowly as high as i want and give it nuts at the top end but as soon as i plunge my foot on idle she coughs, splutters cuts out and makes a loud 'croak' from the intake.
Things i have checked so far.
Seperated exhaust before CAT - wont start
Removed intake and blitzed the throttle body - no different.
Over 200PSI in each cylinder on a compression test.
All leads sparking and new plugs fitted. Seemed to correct it for a while but then back to square one.
Disconnected battery for 10 mins - nothing.
Anyone got any ideas. I am a mechanic myself but this just baffles me, maybe some b18 geeks are out there to save me ??
Regards
