Neef advice of total amount of AC oil 1979 Cutlass
I havorenI I have a 1979 Olds Cutlass. I have all new AC components. I am using an R4 compressor with R12 freon.

The way I read the factory manual for 525 Minerial Oil for each component is:

6oz Compressor
3oz Evaporator
1oz Accumulator
1oz Condensor
________________
11oz total
Does this seem reasonable?
What experiences have people had? and how much oil did you use and install it???

Thanks
Fred

Doesn't the Factory Service Manual give a total amount of oil for the system ? That might be a little less.
