You can rent a vac pump for $20 a day from your local A/C place.

Or I can rent all the equipment from Autozone for nothing. Just a deposit I get back when I return the equipment.

Not the parts store, look for a wholesale a/c supply. commercial style. They sometimes rent pumps. I Dont think anyone will rent guages.

It must be the local store, AZ as a company does not promote it. You're lucky. There is too much liability for contaminated equipment in a/c tools. I wouldnt use a set of guages that I didnt know the history on.

Gary Lewis has some gauges. And he is getting a pump from his brother I think tomorrow. So I wont need the AZ stuff anyways. You make a good point about those gauges..
