JDM B16A A/C pump questions. Hot...please help
I got a B16A in my 92 si
My swap came with the a/c pump, motor bracket and belt
I was going to just buy the two pressure lines and new seals but as I started looking around I heard some bad news...don't know if it's true
I was told that the pump wont work (my hatch is R-12)
Someone also told me that JDM uses R-12 still...so I'm confused
I KNOW the B18 motors have a totally different bracket and pump but this is B16 and came in my car (in Japan)
i was told to run a sohc vtec obd1 pump with a USDM del sol vtec bracket (I've known this for years but thought it applied to B18's only)
I have the JDM bracket and pump and I don't see the problem...
PLEASE anyone know the scoop? I would rather not pay for another pump/bracket on top of what I already need to buy
Any sound advise would be appreciated

Re: JDM B16A A/C pump questions. Hot...please help
I found out from hmotorsonline that the JDM pump is different (its like a B18) from the dohc del sol. del sol and the original d16z6 is the same so I need to spend more money (cuz I gve my d16z6 pump away years ago) and get the pump/lines that I should still have.
