Kurt,

I'm not sure of the '91's, but I know that the '92 is R134 ready. The main thing is the compressor, which on the '92 is stated as R134 compatible. Just a matter of purging the old (refrig and oil), and in with the new (along with a change of the fill valve so that they don't try to stick R12 in it when you do maintenance in the future).
