Well I have the fittings from the kit that were for Goldie but found she had already been converted. SO now I have the fittings for the Beef and since it's in the 90's here well, 147 F on the roof of the Doghouse ccamper yesterday doing a rubber roor install, gonna get the Beef chillin while getting Goldie ready for the trip. ;p
The problem I ran into was locating the charged can for the pag oil and could only get the 8 oz bottle to dump in. Need to know if there is a right place and a wrong place to fill up with oil AND how much oil is needed. I have 3 cans of R134A with leak sealer and the filler tube for the rest . It was much cheaper a go round than buying the kit again. Any insight? :backoff :D

Thanks

Ron ;Really

I did not have any luck with the 8 oz bottle. Most of it found it's way through the compressor and plugged the orfice tube. I flushed the system and found a charge can.
