[W126 Coupe] converting sec from r12 freon to 134a

[Jonathan Hodgman]

I wouldn't  convert, but that's just me.

If you are going to, I'd replace the drier and expansion valve.  While in
the process run a gallon or so of flush through the system and then re-fill
with the correct oil.  Don't forget to R&R the compressor and flush/refill
it as well!

Do not use the port on the compressor.
