Really look at converting to the R134. It will save you in the future. I finally bit the bullet , and replaced my whole system. New everything. You may not have to replace it all but something's you really have to look at. Number one is why did you compressor fail? Did the Teflon seals fly apart and spewed all of the black grease and debris all thru your system? If this is the case you will have a time trying to flush all that out. I believe it can be done correctly but check out the forum for more info. I spent about $330 on parts by shrewd shopping and buying parts a little at a time. Evilbay LP can be a friend sometimes. Then about $40 on R 134 and Pag 46. Rented the tools from AutoZone for about $260. Make sure you pull a good vacuum for at least an hour. Longer if you can. Any kind of leak and you will be doing it again. Thanks to all the information and tips on here.My truck has gotten too cold to run on high here, even in traffic and 90*+ degree weather. It beat the hell out of the estimated $1000 quotes.I feel confident that I will not have to worry about A/C for a few years now. Follow whatever specs on the oil, that the old R12 system called for.
