HINT:

New compressors are filled with sufficient

oil for the whole air conditioning system.
Therefore, it is necessary to drain oil from
the new compressor to compensate for oil
remaining in the condenser and cooling
unit.

chamber (60 cc (3.66 fl.oz))

Standard
(The amount of oil inside a new
compressor: 100 (+15) cc (6.10 (+0.92)
fl.oz)) - (The amount of oil remaining in
the old compressor A + oil remaining in
the reserve chamber: 60 cc (3.66 fl.oz)) =
(The amount of oil to be removed from
the new compressor)

NOTE
When A + 60 cc (3.66 fl.oz) exceeds
the standard oil fill volume specified
for the compressor by part number,
install the compressor without
adjusting the oil volume.

Example:

If A = 45 cc (2.75 fl.oz), A + 60 cc
(3.66 fl.oz) = 105 cc (6.41 fl.oz). If
the standard volume is 100 cc (6.10
fl.oz), install the compressor as is.

When checking the compressor oil

level, observe the precautions for
cooler removal/installation.

If the amount of oil remaining in the

removed compressor is too low,
check for oil leaks.
