Can I expect that my compressor will still work if the system was R12 and was then recharged with R134a (by idiots) and then started stalling the engine at idle, I then cut the belt, and disabled the system. (4.5 years ago) However, I can grab the central shaft of the compressor and rotate it by hand easily and can feel it "pumping/compressing" on each rotation. Think its ok? Or will I clean out the system/recharge it and have it die 100 miles later? 
I'd love to have A/C, it just seems like a huge amount of hastle/expense for a potential-constant failure.
