Vlad,
I just had the 1985 245 A/C renovated by my indy mechanic. He used 12a but tolsd me that the conversion to 134 is dead simple. A couple of very inexpensive fittings and a new drier/receiver and you are done. I replace the expansion valve (due to it being plugged) and the drier/receiver (incidentally, the part can be used for either type of freon) for a whopping $144 CDN. Labour/freon took the entire tab to $294 CDN. Now it is icy cold in the wagoon.
