82-39R-134a Retrofit Kits
MODEL: All
DATE: 6/94
Jaguar Engineered kits are now available which convert R-12 charged air conditioning refrigerant systems to HFC R-134a systems.
Should Jaguar owners wish to convert their R-12 systems at their own expense, retro-fit kits are available as shown below. Retrofitting procedures are shown in the Technical Guide - Air Conditioning System - HFC Refrigerant Retrofit - Part Number JTP 425. Please file this publication carefully as no additional copies are available.
NOTE:
The primary changes involve the replacement of the existing compressor lubricating oil with an oil compatible with both HFC R-134a refrigerant and with the residual R-12 lubricating oil. It is not possible to completely flush R-12 type lubricating oil from the refrigerant system prior to changing to Ester oil and R-134a. Additionally it is necessary to replace the input shaft seal of the compressor with a seal compatible with the R-134a refrigerant and oil as described in the manual.
