more 134a conversion
We have the kit and are getting ready to do the conversion. I noticed that the tech artical wasn't up yet, but we were going to work on this tommorow. Does anyone have any diagrams of the A/C unit or some steps to do this. Which valve is the high side and which is the low?

The valve by the compressor is the one you want to change. Not the valve on top. Make sure not to overfill the system as that will work like it was low. Not cold.

For the official Porsche tech directive for 134 conversion try this site. http://members.tripod.com/early944/
He has a lot of good info and a link to a scanned copy of the conversion tech directive. I found this invaluable to dispell all the "suggestions" my Chevy buddies gave me (you gotta change all the hoses, you gotta change the condensor, you gotta stick a Boss 350 in it with a Hurst shifter...freakin' Neanderthals)
