Re: [Chrysler300] a/c freon

[Robert Schwarze <rfsdo@xxxxxxxxx>]

There is a world of difference between R 12 and R 134
compressors as they are making different pressures to
correctly compress the freon.  I read in the Cadillac
National Club Magazine (4 yrs ago) an article on how
to convert the old GM compressors to R 134, it is very
involved & interesting to read.   bob schwarze
