I think there's a new gas since the 134a that L400's were filled with, but I think it's compatible, just even more green. Unlike the R12 that L300's were originally filled with. Anyway, I don't think your valves will need changing or adapting. _________________ Andy C L300 Super Exceed - over 100 smiles per gallon! |

you want to get a dog so you have something to blame
They told me the system has a slight leak, filled it with dye , re gassed , all working , so see how long it lasts and where the leak pops up......watch the weather turn cold now _________________ Always remember when you read my replies I know less than Bazza. |

Mine was cold for a couple of weeks once till it leaked out and then I mullered the underneath after going down a slope Les pointed at so ripped it all out to stop the rad getting clogged with mud.
Best places for leaks seem to be under the bus on the passenger side where the gubbins are or passenger side leaking from the right into the footwell.
