Re: Converting factory AC to use R134a

Jim I like the look of the POA better and I've not been able to keep the compressor from cycling more than I like at highway speeds. I've done the fan on the condenser and wired it to the power lead to the compressor so it only runs with the a/c on, and it does help a little. Its off right now but I'm either going to put the fan back on or change the condenser. Bill I'm glad you've had good success with converting your's over. Other folks I know and trust have said the same thing. More often than not I've been advised that the increased pressure does typically require changing the condenser.
