Thanks for the offer. I think it's time I bought the manual. I wonder if r134a was introduced in certain markets earlier, or if it was introduced after a certain production date. Which could mean that there are r12 cars with condensors designed for r134a, or r134a cars that didn't get the right condensor from the factory. Or the actual parts changed during the model year.
The r12 valve cores always have to come out. The local ac guy was telling me about a conversion that our local Saab dealer did. The car came to the ac guy because it was not cooling at all and the dealer told the customer that converted cars just don't cool that well. Turns out the r12 valve cores were not removed. The AC guy put the gas analyzer on it and it was 100% r12 in the system. All the dealer had done was to screw adapters on and try to charge. They clearly had read the pressues in the hoses because no gas went into the system. The ac guy told me how much the Saab dealer had charged for the conversion. I am not sure if it was an exaggeration, but I hope so.... On the other hand, the first meaningful consumer fraud case in our state is against the Saab dealer.
