Two ways... One refer to your owners' manual for the proper oil amount. TWO fill a little oil at a time and after each little bit check the dipstick or tank. When the oil has reached the full line, then you will know. Record how much oil it took to get there to make the process faster in the future.
Its always best to drain the oil from the old compressor and then add that same amount back to the new compressor but to be on the safe side add 4 ounces and prime it on the bench first...
For a 1998 Chevy, the AC compressor typically requires about 6 ounces of refrigerant oil, but it's important to check the specific service manual for your model for exact specifications. The oil is usually added to the compressor during the installation of the new compressor or when servicing the AC system. To add the oil, you would typically remove the compressor, pour the oil into the compressor's designated port, and then reassemble the system. Always ensure to follow manufacturer guidelines for the best results.
If you are only changing the compressor, add 3 ounces into the suction port of the compressor before you attach hoses. After hoses are attached rotate the compressor by hand clockwise several turns to distribute the oil.
changing ac compressor only, how much oil do i add 2.7 Toyota tacoma 1999.... 6 ounces
To add oil to a new AC compressor in a 1999 Chevrolet Blazer, locate the oil fill port on the compressor, which is typically a small plug or fitting. Use the manufacturer's recommended type and amount of refrigerant oil, usually specified in the compressor's manual. It's essential to add the oil before installing the compressor to ensure proper lubrication. After filling, reassemble everything and recharge the AC system with refrigerant according to specifications.
Amount of compressor replacement oilFrom what I've read in other AC Manuals and what I've practiced, with regards to the amount of refrigerant oil to add, is to add the same amount that you drain from the old compressor unit that you removed from your system. This amount, from my experience is about 5 oz, however, it varies from compressor to compressor. The most accurate way to asses this, short of contacting the compressor mfg, is to apply what I said in the first sentence. add 6 ounces for a single ac system and 10 to 12 ounces for a vehicle w/rear air.(like surburbans, vans etc.)
Yes!
8oz.
If you only replaced the compressor, 2 to 3 ounces.
If the system didn't blow a hose and you are only replacing the compressor, I would add 3 ounces of oil to the new compressor through the suction port and turn the comp by hand several revolutions to pump it through.

You should not put any oil in a Ford air conditioning compressor. The air conditioning compressor runs on Freon. The system should take about one pound of Freon.
