A/C Refrigerant Oil Replacement

Recommended PAG oil: KEIHIN SP-10


Add the recommended refrigerant oil in the amount listed if you replace any of the following parts.


Condenser . 25 m[liter] (5/6 fl·oz, 0.9 lmp·oz) 
Evaporator . 45 m[liter] (1 1/2 fl·oz, 1.6 lmp·oz) 
Line or hose . 10 m[liter] (1/3 fl·oz, 0.4 lmp·oz) 
Recelver/Dryer . 10 m[liter] (1/3 fl·oz, 0.4 lmp·oz) 
Leakage repair . 25 m[liter] (5/6 fl·oz, 0.9 lmp·oz) 
Compressor . For compressor replacement, subtract the volume of oil drained from the removed compressor from 130 m[liter] (5 1/3 fl·oz, 5.6 lmp·oz), and drain the calculated volume of oil from the new compressor: 130 m[liter] (5 1/3 fl·oz, 5.6 lmp·oz) - Volume of removed compressor = Volume to drain from new compressor.

NOTE: Even if no oil is drained from the removed compressor, don't drain more than 50 m[liter] (1 2/3 fl·oz, 1.8 lmp·oz) from the new compressor.
