You should be able to run the original comp with no worries. John deere and chamberlain used the same one and they have all been converted to r12 gas with no issues. It is the hoses that cant handle the gas. They are too porous and let the gas leak out. There is bugger all hose so it wont be a big issue to change. that should say converted to r134a gas.
