R12a may work fine, but from what I've read, you are still supposed to go through a complete conversion weather you switch to r12a or r134a. Still supposed to change seals, receiver/drier, and flush the system. There are plenty of places offering short cuts, but that's not the correct way. r12a is supposed to cool better than r134a, but it is a propane/butane mix so it's not as safe from a flamability standpoint. You need to weigh cooling vs safety. I live up north, so extreme cooling is not a requirement YMMV.
