[W126 Coupe] Re: Refrigerant info

[a figment of the imagination]

Richard et al.:

Now that I have read through all your links and become
throughly versed in physical chemistry, HVAC, and am
ready sit for examinations for a mechanical
engineering degree and HVAC license, I'm thoroughly
con-fuzed... :(

I'm not sure whether to switch to R134a or stay with
R12.  

I don't know who's side is truly correct, because I've
read arguments on both sides that are plausible and
some as well a bit specious, perhaps?

Sadly though, all of this translates as me still
roasting in my black SEC with tinted windows.  That
means damp and sticky work clothes...in near 100+ F
temps....and the embarrassment of wearing a "wet one"
after getting out of a simply badd ass look'n SEC
machine...Oh, "the horror....the horror", as Marlon
Brando (Kurtz) plainly put it.  

So, even though several of you have successfully
converted to R134a, either the swiss-cheesed savants
are totally right, totally wrong, somewhere in
between, or totally passing gas---it's simply more hot
air, that's fryin my pan, burning my bacon and
roasting my nuts.   

shivers.  (i wish)  it seems better to cook with spam
for the next two months, with the hopes of shelling
out 3 cans X $50-75/can of R12 = $150 to $225 to keep
me cool and in the shade.  (Thank gawd, mom has a HVAC
license and can get R12....geez louise???)

Then, can we unanimously conclude it's just better to
stick with R12?

Or, really, where's the beef with the R134a?



Someone please tell me I'm not going crazy from the
heat....

What's the final verdict for SEC owners who plan to
keep their cars for the long haul without burnin up
the A/C oil and compressor, clogging the system,
etc...galore...and gored...?


Help!


Thank ya, man!


-figment of great misfortune in too much dmn heat.
