When I bought my '85 Westy, the PO said the A/C hadn't worked during the
2 years he owned it, so no telling how long it had needed a charge.

A year later, I replaced the receiver/dryer and any disturbed O-rings
... flushed the system, removed the compressor for draining and
flushing, installed the R-134A fittings, ester oil, evacuated the system
(it held) and charged it up.  I have to put in about one can of 134 each
year to keep it up to snuff.
