If you are going to be using R134a, then use pag 46. The system should need 6.5 ounces of oil. Flush the evaporator coil, and ALL of the lines. Add oil in various locations, 1 in the drier, 2 in the condenser, 1.5 in the evaporator, and 2 in the compressor. Rotate the compressor clutch after installing and before adding refrigerant. Do not add refrigerant as a liquid all at once, you can damage the valve plates. Compressors do not like to compress liquids, they compress low pressure gas. Go slow.

Good luck!
