Nope 134 levels are fine on guages. Yesterday I let it run in garage and w ac on LO and it seemed fine. Maybe just the 105 degree days., Very underperforming ac set up for such a high $ car.

Have been told that the old R 12, cools better, (colder) than the improved R 134 does.

The patent on R 12 ran out, so add fake climate data, we get R 134, with higher pressure.

Or so i've been told

Much like the corn they put into our gasoline, so that doesn't perform as well in older vehicles.

Also rots older rubber components, in carb's, and hoses
