dang R12 hose...

is it illegal to purchase/posess an R12 hose w/o certification?? because..umm....this guy that i know...yup, this guy, put his last can of R12 in his Camaro today, but he's not really sure if it all went in because it seems that a fitting on the hose was slightly leaking. this guy has sources, so he can get more R12, and also found a hose by mail order, but wouldnt want to get in trouble for getting that hose. so, can anyone help this guy out by letting me know??? hehe thanks

Better watch your (ehem) his back...the hose police will get you (cough) him....

As Ede said, you can have R12 and hoses, fittings and all that stuff, they just made it so you have to be certified to get more.
