e9999 said:well, I've driven many 134 systems, including in hot deserts and I can't think of any occasion where I thought they were seriously insufficient to handle the job. Yes, it may perhaps take a few minutes more at first (guessing) but in steady-state I never thought they were not good enough...
It may well be that the fluid is inherently less effective (don't know the temps) but I would think that the designers would simply compensate for that with bigger hardware?

medtro said:Have you driven a converted R134a system in AZ?
flintknapper said:Yeah, if R-12 wasn't so expensive I'd consider retrofitting my 134a to it. I have the certification...so I can buy it. Heck, I've got 3 one pound cans just sitting in my shop right now.
Hopefully... they will come up with an alternative refrigerant to replace 134a that ACTUALLY performs as well as R-12.
Boston Mangler said:Sorry to piggy back the thread, but I got a 93 FZJ80
How can i tell if it has R12 or 134 in it?
Thanks
