Also, you need something to catch most of your freon (cuz you really aren't supposed to let it out into the air). Might just be easier to take it to a shop.
Got mine done at the Chevy dealership for $70. That was with 2 units of R134a and an about 1.5 hrs labor from filling it up, checking for leaks, taking the ref. back out, replacing the valve, putting ref. back in, etc.
