I heard that it was near impossible to clean the old oil out (unconfirmed) and that a car/van/RV's system had to be (better be) replaced, rather than try to update it to R-134A. The problem, as I remember it described is that there's always a trace of oil, and R-134A will react with it, even in minuscule amount to form an acid.

What's your take on that?
