I've never had ANY luck converting a R-12 system over to R-134. Tried it on an '82 Saab 900 and it never got very cold and would freeze up the a/c lines. Tried converting a '89 Mustang GT....hopeless. Went through two compressors trying to convert a '92 Mazda 929, blew out the seals and it never got as cold as the R-12.
Gave up on the Saab, donated it at 250,000 miles. Went back to R-12 on the Mazda and it is the coldest a/c system I've ever had blowing out the vents at 32 degrees even on the hottest days. The Mustang also went back to R-12 and it works very good blowing around 32-40 except for the hottest days then it's not so grand. Typicle for the Fox body mustangs though.
