mine was already converted by the PO,but now needs a charge.
Should I buy the refill kit with the gauge included? Do I need it or just add the extra freon...also what does running the a/c do to your mileage?

My roof air keeps it relatively comfortable on all but the hottest days, but it means running the generator, which uses soem gas also, no big deal but if the front a/c is going to drop me to 5-6 mpg I won't be recharging it anytime soon.
It seems like the best thing I have done for cockpit coolness was to bypass the heater core. I noticed no difference in operating temp, as i had recently serviced the cooling system, putting in some coolant additive also.
