You are best off to get a rebuilt compressor. Other parts in the compressor are probably worn also so replace the whole unit. Most suppliers won't warranty a compressor unless you change the receiver dryer at the same the & flush the system.
Your question leads me to believe you are replacing the whole system, so why would it be a concern? A completely new system, is a completely new system. Besides, I believe Payne is made by Carrier, just one of their off brands. Like YORK who makes Coleman and others.
The whole system probably requires aprox 10 ounces. If your only replacing the compressor I would add 3 ounces into the suction port, then rotate pump clockwise by hand several times before engaging pump.
Yes, it can. But on a 1994, you are better off discharging the system, replacing the unit as a whole, and then recharging the system. This will enable you to find any problems in the A/C system that are unknown.
its probably not just a bearing. in fact just replacing the compressor isn't wise either. the lines should be flushed, the dryer replaced and the expansion valve should be at least cleaned. compressors that have broken or worn out enough to make noise usually send metal particles through the whole system.
Put a new fuse in. Turn on the ac, make sure you have enough freon to allow the PCM to engage the compressor. If it pops when the ac is turned on then the compressor clutch coil is most likely burnt. The fuse blows to keep the rest of the system from frying. I recommend replacing the the whole compressor. Good Luck.
The compressor is located on the front passenger side of the engine compartment just in front of the battery. (man, have we had problems with the whole suspension system!)

its 4.7 qts with a filter change. Its over 10 qts for whole system but that requires a flush of the system.

Shops use a freon recovery system that contains the freon while the system gets worked on. The system has to be cleaned and vaccumed properly to remove trash and moisture or it will fail again or even not function properly.
take the vehicle to a reputible radiator repair shop and they should be able to flush the whole system out for you.
