Important: The refrigerant oil in the A/C system must be balanced during compressor replacement.
2.1. | Refer to the amount of refrigerant oil recorded during the compressor removal. |
2.2. | Subtract the amount recorded from the total system capacity. Refer to Refrigerant System Capacities . |
The difference between the total system capacity and the recorded amount is the calculated amount to be drained from the replacement compressor.
