Stick with R134 - works well when properly charged (approx 85% of the factory R12 charge) and it is readily available.
One less thing you will have to explain when you sell the car.
Just my 2 cents
Yes, expansion valve replaced with a new one.
I didn’t replace the evaporator. I see no reason for that, it’s just a radiator and mine looks perfect still, zero signs of any leakage, and flows clean, so I can’t see what additional performance a replacement would give me.
And yes, one of the reasons I’ve decided to stick with R134 is it is less to explain later down the road.
