if the pump works good, that's an amazing deal.

See http://jrichker.stangnet.com/Mustang_tech/R134a_conversion/R134a_conversion.htm for R134 conversion help.

This makes my tech note workable for a lot more people...

THE ONLY WAY THAT ONE CAN BE OLD AND WISE IS TO BE YOUNG AND DUMB.

THE ONLY WAY THAT ONE CAN BE OLD AND WISE IS TO BE YOUNG AND DUMB. pump works great held 27 of vacume for 30 minutes. I did look at you topic on how to convert. What I screwed up on when I first started to convert my 1990 was that I had a shop vacume it down then I bought the conversion kit from autozone that had the oil freon and some kind of leak stop in it. I filled it up and the system would only execpt one can of the crap before my compressor almost locked up, long story short I'm an idiot and all I needed to do was to vacume down the system and fill it with just R134a freon not the oil combo leak crap. SO far in my A/C excursion I have replaced the liquid line the dryer and hose I have unbolted my compressor and blown all the oil out of it along with the condensor and high side line put new 134 oil in compressor hooked everything back up vacumed it down and charged it with 134. I've spent close to $300 bucks on everything when in the beginning I could have spent 10 bucks on freon and 10 bucks on fittings and I could vaumed it down myself. I have learned alot about A/C but it has been an expensive lesson. THE ONLY WAY THAT ONE CAN BE OLD AND WISE IS TO BE YOUNG AND DUMB.
