Any one know anything about A/C?

There you go.  If it's set up right.  What people are doing now is 
going to Wal-Mart and buying recharge kits and recharging leaky systems 
that have moisture in them.

I can't believe you replaced 250 compressors because the had R134 in 
the system.There must have been some other reason.
  I am not a AC expert but my experience with daily work on recovery 
machines has not borne out your statement.
If the AC system is properly set up and charged R134 will work as good 
as R12 with the possible exception of cooling at idle.If your AC is 
making cold air it don't matter what is in the system.
my .02 worth.
