First off you can't buy R-12 or R-22 without a license. I would think that
if you had a license you would have test equipment and would be smart enough
to read the gauges to realize the system is R-12 or R-22. Double Duh...
Triple duh, it's not that hard to get R-12 or R-22 wthout a license. And
pressure gauges in and off themselves will not tell you what type of gas you
have in your system.

At room temp., (i.e., haven't been running it for an hour), the pressure will
be the vapor pressure of the stuff at that temp. (IF it is not so low on fluid
that there is no fluid at all left). You have to look up somewhere what the
vapor pressure of each is. (I used to know, but that was a long time ago.)
I think that the stuff for cars is the one with the least pressure for a given
temp since it is so damn hot under the hood of a car.
I have gauges and an electronic leak detector, and I would fix my freezer, but
.. . . how do people get freon today without a licence?
(Not that 'I' would do it if it were illegal. Just wondering about how 'other'
people do it.)
