Spoke to Auto Elect about re-gassing my air cond,he said that its an old system and needs a retro-fit to accept new gas type.As i do not know how long since system was working there maybe leaks and other issues.Would any one like to recommend someone for a second opinion or am i wasting alot of time and money?

LEGALLY.. He must evacuate and re-gas the A/C system and then test the operation and thoroughly check for leaks. If he then finds a leak or fault you would still expect to pay for the A/C service conducted.
It is illegal to top up or re-gas an A/C system that you haven't inspected for leaks or don't know the history of.
