A service manual for your car will tell you for sure. and you need a special license to buy any r-12 (i have one) you also need a machine that uts the r12 into the system by weight so theres no guess work. It also may be cheaper to convert the system to r134a and is a lot easier to install (i do it in my driveway with no special tools)
