  • how much oil to put in compressor?

    bought my new a/c compressor and this morning i went through the "fun time" of removing my old one. the new one says it should hold 9 ounces, but my shop teacher says thats too much. so he said he was gonna make some calls and find out for me tomorrow so i can install it and get my car back driving...

    so does anyone just know how much oil?

    Whats your car? Look in your repair manual. It says
    2000 3.8 A4 Pewter Camaro

      and i dont have the manual for the car
      and the only thing that tells me anything is the side of the compressor which says 9 oz. which i know is not right

        should be 2oz but you need to know how much oil you have pulled out of the entire system as well
