4-2-2 Replacing and refilling the refrigerant oil
1.Replacing the compressor - Do not fill the system with oil as the compressor is already charged.
2.Replacing the condenser - Refill 50cc.
3.Replacing the evaporator - Refill 50cc.
4.Replacing the refrigerant - Refill 30cc.
5.The high pressure side is filled up with oil after the vacuum is completed.
6.When the refrigerant leaks, it is generally not necessary to refill the oil if the leakage is not severe.
