Converted to 134a from R12 in my '92 9000 about four years ago, and it work just great, very cold. But I did the whole job: replaced o-rings, drier, expansion valve and drained all oil and flushed with an AC solvent from NAPA (pricey but evaporates very quickly unlike mineral spirits.) Then I added the correct amount and right grade of oil for the compressor, vacuumed the system for several hours and recharged with the correct amount of refrigerant. I think a lot of conversions don't do the whole job and then blame the 134a.
