I believe that flush is OK for the condenser and evaporator but not for the A/C rubber hoses. The original thought on a conversion was that R-12 lines and R-134a lines are made of a different material and flushing out the R-12 mineral oil coating on the old hoses could lead to leaks. This is why I just blow the old oil out with air, then replace the accumulator, orifice tube, compressor and O rings before recharging with R-134a and Ester oil. ------------------ " THE BLACK PARALYZER" -87GT 3800SC Series III engine, custom ZZP /Frozen Boost Intercooler setup, 3.4" Pulley, Northstar TB, LS1 MAF, 3" Spintech/Hedman Exhaust, P-log Manifold, Autolite 104's, MSD wires, Custom CAI, 4T65eHD w. custom axles, Champion Radiator, S10 Brake Booster, HP Tuners VCM Suite.
