Not sure if it's PAG or POE-not specified on the invoice from the shop. Would I have to flush the whole system since I have a 50/50 chance of two different oils?

I went with ester as it it recommended on this board.

Should I just drain it and put in fresh since I don't know how much is in the compressor right now?

Man this a/c repair seems like it never going to end. Just when you think you are almost done somethings else occurs.
