Re: Help - how much AC Oil to add ? Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Help - how much AC Oil to add ?, Mark in Marine (MN), Mon, 22 Apr 2013 05:56:46 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
It is no formula out there that can predict every different scenario on an old car.
How much oil did come out of the old system? If the condenser and compressor pours out a pool of oil it means the system was pretty well filled up to begin with.
If you see no oil residue and maybe even evidence of dust, the system was empty of oil.
Empty systems takes about 6oz of oil and if you saw plenty of oil coming out, it might be enough with 3-4oz.
When I recharge a system I usually add 2oz.
Also, a new compressor might or might not come with oil filled and how much you never know.
