I was trying to find the proper amount of freon for this system. It has been converted to r-134, and I had to replace the compressor and drier. I have a diesel repair business, and do a lot of a/c repair, but am not familiar with a system this big. I know on smaller systems, for proper performance, freon needs to be within 2 oz. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Bryan
I have a 91 LeMirage XL. It had a 9 ton unit plus a 2 ton drivers ac and 2 ton auxillary rear unit. According to the manual, the 9 ton unit takes 25 pounds, the drivers takes 8 pounds and the auxillary takes an additional 5 pounds of 134a.

There may be some differences for year of coach so suggest you consider this info in that light.

Also suggest that you consider getting a manual, mine came from http://www.coachinfo.com as a CD for $100.

Hope this is helpful.

Thank you Rob. I just finished the main a/c system. Ended up taking 22lbs.8oz, which is about the same as origional 25 lbs of r12, like u said. Putting out 50F air and all is well. Also appreciate the info on the manual, figured on getting one, but kept forgetting until I was in the position to need it. Hard to believe I could forget something.....right...Anyway, thanks again.
