A point to keep in mind...R12 systems made use of flexible hoses that were designed for r12 use, a 134a system makes use of hoses that are designed for 134a. 134a hoses will have a plastic liner inside to prevent the refrigerant from escaping (seeping) thru the hose body, R12 hoses were not manufactured in that manner. R12 is denser than 134a, so if converting to 134a consider replacing all the flexible hosing.
