Ive recently decided to replace the AC compressor, drier and orifice tube. My only concern to this point in the repair, which I havent found any information that makes me comfortable yet is how to properly add oil to the system. It takes 9 oz. Pag 46.
Ive already properly flushed all the lines and components out and now need to install the compressor/add oil.
New compressor shipped with pag oil - not sure how much. I plan to drain that oil and put in motorcraft pag oil. Only question I have is do I have to add oil anywhere else in the system before I button it up and draw vacuum?
Im getting mixed opinions on this. Some say to just add oil to compressor and some say to add oil to the evap, condenser and drier.
So whats the proper way to do this?
