In-dash air conditioner - Worth converting or fixing?

I have an older Jamboree I am breathing new life into and cost is a concern. Our in-dash air conditioner is dead and I am mulling over converting it to R134A. However, I have seen some posts comment...

I'm with j-d. The mileage loss would be rough. I'm only getting about 6.5 as is. Losing that .5 mpg (or more) would add up to the cost of replacing my compressor in about 10 tank fulls. We do so. cal. trips regularly and that would be at least 5 fills right there. Two trips and I'm in positive returns land.
