Subject:      Re: A/C conversion to R134a??
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


R134a requires "barrier hoses" and R12 didn't--or they didn't
exist then.


Seems like a conversion is doomed to leak R134a without
a hose change.


Anyone changed hoses in a conversion?  Where did the
hoses come from?  I am starting to think of a conversion for
my '87.  Also for my '88 Carrera; I know who makes hoses
for that!
