Kuehl, in hoping you have some advice in the context of your comment above...
I have my stock Denso in essentially unknown condition, since it was replaced by the Sanden in my strategy to keep replacing stuff until the system worked. Given that the system now works (albeit poorly), I will soon be having the system emptied again so I can revert to a new dry receiver/drier and get a good charge.
It's possible my stock Denso works awesome, but it definitely hasn't had good refrigerant flow for probably at least 10 years. It has definitely spun in that time just to run the fan I'm sure, but I know little of the history before I owned the car. It's fair to assume it's run a good number of hours without refrigerant, and so without good oil supply.
Is it possible to bench test the compressor without actually trying to charge up the system with it? If not, is there a way to service it and be reasonably sure it will run well? Or should I just sick with the Sanden that is nearly brand new and is at least a known quantity?
Thanks for any advice you (or others) can offer.
