My R134 experience-So far so good

Went with a Serpentine Setup on my 84, new 4Seasons Compressor. Really fretted over the whole new condenser issue but figured to try the OEM unit.
New O rings, Blue ford Orifice, 8 oz ester oil and 3 cans and a bit of r134, probably close to 42 oz by best guess. Line pressure finally settled about 24 Low and 245 high, Ambient temp was about 80, passenger side vent temp- 37 Degrees.

Think I am still going to put a shutoff valve on the Heater line and add LT1 Dual electric fans out of want to more than need. Hope it holds up to the Tallahassee Summers 95 degrees/ 95% humidity.
