The fittings are NOT a sure thing.

I'm converting mine to R-134 and keeping the original fittings.

I'm using my R-12 hoses to supply R-134 to the system.

If it had been converted, only the receiver/dryer would have been replaced at a minimum, as that is what Volvo calls out as the only thing needed for the conversion, so the fittings on the compressor may have changed, OR they may not have, thus not a sure thing to check for a conversion.

That's why I stated earlier, there should be a yellow sticker on the receiver/dryer, which is in keeping with standard notification to the current owner or any future owner of the vehicle stating its conversion.
