1980 r12
The truck stopped cooling recently and I noticed oil on the front of the compressor and some blown on my fender. The A6 is probably original. When I bought the truck the gentleman game me about 30lbs of R12 so I would like to keep the R12 system. It was blowing 28F out the center vent, now 80F. Thoughts on my next step? Been a little warm lately...

Re: 1980 r12
Either get a new compressor or see if that one can be rebuilt. The vacuum system and check for leaks, recharge and hopefully all good. It will definitely need cleaned dried out as there is moisture in that system now.
