Hello

My AC Compressor on my 90 Carat finally wnet this
weekend with oil leaking out of the seal at a rapid
rate.  The system had been retrofit to 134a about two
years ago.  I imagine the increased pressure of the
134a system may have hastened the demise of the
compressor.

Questions:
Should I replace the compressor with the orginal
equipment SD709 unit?  Does anyone have an alternative
that is designed for 134a pressures?

How much would a AC shop charge to replace a Vanagon
compressor and dryer/reciever? (assuming that the rest
of the system is sound)

Yes,I know it is coming to fall, but here in Southern
California, AC is a year round need.

Thanks in Advance
