Michael: I have heard that if R12 and R134 were accidentally mixed in a system, the oils are incompatible and would probably eventually precipitate out clogging everything.

So I went out there and looked at the things my manual says I should look for...

The clutch looks clean and I can't see any grease leaking out.

I took apart the Stator Coil connection as per the manual and checked its resistance. The manual says it should be around 3.7 ohms +/- 0.2 ohms at 20 degrees C. It's about 8 degrees C outside right now and I've got infinity. So I'm thinking this is the problem...could this cause my magnetic clutch to stop functioning? Thanks for all the help.
