Default R12 to R134

Hey all, I've decided to convert my R12 air conditioner to the R134 (might be 124?), simply because I need to get freon and its much to hard to get for the R12.

How can I flush out the remaining R12 in my unit? Is this something I can do myself or do I have to have someone do it for me. How much would this be if someone did it for me?

Thanks, Patrick

It is R134a.

How can I flush out the remaining R12 in my unit?
This is an extract from a guide to AC servicing. How you do it depends on your views on pollution.

You probably don't have much, if any, R12 left in the system; it is a gas, and if you converted the system to 134, the system is empty. Even if there are traces left, I'd not worry about them...
