Dear = List...
      I recently ordered the = R12-134a conversion kit from the Bus Depot.  I
then read that the = conversion will fail because the Vanagons AC hoses were
not made for the = newer refrigerant.  Is anyone running 134a without the hose =
change...how long have you been running it, and does anyone know is there are
replacement hoses available?
