The SDL I used to own had been converted to R134a by the PO at a conversion
shop. I have no idea if it was done correctly nor how long before I got the
car, but it did cool nicely in the OK 100+ summers.

The A/C on my 1990 350 SDL was not really cooling like it shouldand that
was last summer. This year, it's worse. Since I've had the car, every 3-4
years, I usually have to add a 1/2 - 1 pound or so to get it to cool
adequately, So, I guess it's time again.
It also has those dual aux fans,
you are probably going to have to remove the radiator, then unclip the
condenser and just tilt it back then you can unbolt the fans and get

As for the A/C, I've thought about just adding more R-12 to keep it
cooling
hopefully, for another few years (and running with 1 of 2 aux fans) OR
see
if the fan can be replaced without removing the evaporator.
Obviously, if
the evap needs to come out, (to R/R the fan) then I guess we'll

Our new 126 has been converted, looks like it was a pro job, such as
that might be. It sorta works, I tried to put in some more juice the
other day and it seemed to be topped off. It is sorta hit and miss on
cooling though, the coupla times I have driven it. Wifey seems to think
