Steve, how many cans of R134 did you add when you converted this? It sounds like you may simply be overcharged. Two cans is all you need. Another common mistake is over-oiling the system. It will never cool properly. These combination freon/oil charge cans are being used to top off systems that are already over-oiled. Push in the valve on the low side to let a little freon out. If your getting oil coming out almost imediatly, you're over-oiled. Have a vaccum pulled, and add two cans of just freon. If you feel you need oil, add the smaller type of cans (2or3 oz). The standard 8oz ones are too much on this system with left over residues. These Maxi-Cool AC additives that imply 10% AC gains are compressor oil as well(call it AC STP oil treatment). If you feel these types of additives offer what they claim, use one can with Maxi-Cool, and Don't add any oil.
