new vs old Air Conditioning
Hello All, I am in the process of restoring my 68 currently it is in pieces with hopes of getting put back together. Anyway it has factory air and used to work I have tried to seal up the fittings but am sure they got stuff inside anyway. At this point am I better off to convert this to R134 and use my old compressor. What are the ideas for changing the compressor can I just change this and what to use. I do remember there is a valve toward the box that would sometimes stick, if I tapped it it would get cool again. I have seen some posts saying the new ones are more efficient. My plans for the sake of money was just to use what I have (possibly a compressor change) but didn’t know what all to change if converting to the new R134.
Thanks and just wanted to see what others had done. Dave ![]()
