Adding Refrigerant Oil After Multiple Component Replacement After A/C System Contamination

NOTE: This refrigerant oil adding method is to be used when a new A/C  compressor, suction accumulator or receiver drier and evaporator core orifice or TXV have been installed due to system contamination and the A/C  system has been flushed.
  1. If the new A/C  compressor is shipped with a new clutch and pulley already installed, remove the A/C  drain bolt (if equipped) remove the shipping caps and rotate the new A/C  compressor shaft 6 to 8 revolutions while collecting the oil in a clean measuring cup.
    • To install, tighten to 30 Nm (22 lb-ft).
  2. Add 60 ml (2.03 fl. oz) directly to the new A/C  compressor suction port.
  3. Inject the total vehicle PAG oil capacity minus 60 ml (2.03 fl. oz) to the low-side service port during system charging. For the total PAG oil capacity specification, REFER to General Specifications .
