    I still believe condenser is single biggest factor in cooling. Yes, this is assuming your comp/expansion valve/dryer/etc etc is up to spec. Thing with these retrofits usually was that the much more efficient R12 DIDNT need a larger more efficient condenser. They were smaller. R134a is a different animal. Anywaym, Im no expert, just my opinion.

    Wow, cool. Good thing you had a neighbor with an EPA license. Also, you were real lucky that the leak was at an easy spot, as if it was in the evap, big project, usually. Hope that needle didnt move when you tested the vac.
