What do I need to make a proper R134a AC conversion on my 91TT

[TT Eric]

As the tittle says is anyone kind enough to tell me (and help build a data base here) exactly everything I need to do a proper R134a conversion ?

So far, last year I had the compressor and the drier replaced (I think they have put new seals) and even if I use my AC only maybe 15-20 times last year, at spring time, I had no more gas in it, leaked by a seal, I went to refil the system but after that the AC doesn't work anymore : when I start the AC, I now got the 'red dot' instead of the 'ninja blue star' after a few minutes on the screen.

Thanks

I would just stick with the r12 system. any reason your not just fixing the system but instead just replacing it?

I'm in for information. A friend of mine did the conversion on his Grand National by swapping all the parts to R-134a parts. I guess the difference in the particle size between r12 and r134a means that r12 parts using r134a will never make the air as cold as a proper r134a system.

[AaronVR4]

Yeah I've heard that as well. Also I think that R12 will leak out of a r134a system.

Not available here and not legal.

you have a pepboys?

Its not legal here in Texas either. I think the closest place its legal is like Arizona. BUT

You can run to pepboys and pick up a can of freeze12. Thats what i did on the VR4 and i had hard nipples for a while...

[TT Eric]

No we don't have Pepboys.
