Final question. How much oil do I put in the r4 compressor and the rest of the system. I have scoured the internet with no results. Also no underhood sticker To go off.
Thanks

It is mineral oil which I do not believe is compatible with r134a. I plan to invert the compressor and drain as much as possible. What oil should I use...

Thanks Tim, am I going to have any issues connecting this to my existing system?

I see this model at ackits.com Part #: 12-0438C

Thanks, well I need a new compressor whichever coolant I use. are all r4 compressors equally bad or is one brand better than another???

Thanks for the reply, I am stuck with the corvette so I cant help that it is not a good candidate. However if you know of a better compressor I could buy instead of the 4 seasons one I would appreciate any advice pointing me in the right direction. I could also replace the condenser if that would he...
