What year did Honda introduce R134 into their cars? Specifically did the
Civic have R134 by 1994?

I'm pretty sure the Accord got it for '94, so I assume the Civic did too.

similar.

Check under the hood for a sticker indicating whether R134
or R12 is used.

I think '94 was the first year. My daughter's '93 Accord is (still) R-12,
while my son's '94 Integra is factory R-134a.
