COMPRESSOR OIL SPECIFICATIONS
The compressor is factory filled with 150 - 170 cc's of
PAG 100 oil (Poly Alkelene Glycol).
It is only necessary to check, replenish or replace the
compressor oil in the following cases:
• When the evaporator, condenser or receiver-drier is
replaced.
• When refrigerant has leaked from the system.
• When refrigerant is suddenly released from the cooling
cycle.
• When any oil related problems occur in the cooling
cycle.
NOTE
When one of the components (the evaporator,
condenser or receiver-drier) is replaced, 1.0 ounce (30
cc) of PAG 100 oil should be added for each component
replaced.
If the A/C compressor is changed, no oil should be
added to the system, because the compressor comes
factory filled with oil.
Only PAG 100 oil should be used. Never mix R-12 and
R-134a Oils.
