I don't think I need to rebuild the compressor. The system is tight and there are no leaks. I started reading about rebuilding the clutch, and I guess that's what I'll do.
R-12 certainly works better in an R-12 system than converting that system over to R-134a using the same compressor, because R-134a needs higher pressures. So if I go to the newer refrigerant, I'll put in a compressor made for it. Shouldn't be a problem here in Florida -- my wife's car has R-134a and it works just fine. I'm just hoping to avoid the expense. If I keep the car another 10 years, I know I'm going to have to switch over to 134 or some other non-ODS refrigerant eventually.
I guess sometime this week I'll be looking into doing the clutch rebuild. I'll let you know how that goes.
