How can I tell if my air conditioner is running on R12?

How hard is it convert my air conditioner for R12 to R134A?

Any help would be great it is getting hot in the south

If the fittings to fill your system look like a tire valve,
then you have R12, if the fittings are larger, and
look like air fittings (snap on) then it is R134

Get the system evacuated out, then put in the oil
and R134. Kits go for about 50 bucks

I went with a Sanden rotory compressor.  It came with a a bracket kit and
new evaporator.  I was actually suprised at how easy it was.  A bonus was
that it produce much much colder air, and was about a fourth the drag on the
engine.  In summary.....I love the upgrade.

The "about a fourth the drag on the engine caught my attention".  That is my
only complaint about my OEM compressor.  What did you spend on this upgrade?
Maybe I'll do it.
