it doesnt work, but i dont know if its completely discharged...i have an a/c delete kit but i need to make sure its discharged before i disconnect things. a face full of R12 wouldnt be very fun

im not gonna lie. when i did my heater core in my 89 lx i just used a screw driver to see if there was any refridgerant. I was lucky there was none in it a :). I was getting ready to drive it to a shop with no dash or consles just to get it removed. But i figured it didnt work so there was nothing in it and might as well check. Not telling you to do that its enviromently unfriendly but a way to see if there is any in the system. :) p.s never do a heater core in a fox haha.

All you gotta do is use the screw driver method and make sure your not right over top of it.

yup. i use my 10'' screw driver and just stand back a little...let the r12 out in the atmosphere. its illegal to do though. dont do it in a small space either..
