and moisture to a minimum.
CONNECTING LINES AND FITTINGS
A new gasket or "O" ring should be used in all instances when
connecting lines or fittings. Dip "O" ring in new refrigerant oil and
ensure it is not twisted during installation. Always use 2 wrenches to
prevent damage to lines and fittings.
PLACING SYSTEM IN OPERATION
After component service or replacement has been completed and
all connections have been made, evacuate system thoroughly with a
vacuum pump. Charge system with proper amount of refrigerant and
perform a leak test. See REFRIGERANT OIL & R-12 SPECIFICATIONS chart
in this section for system capacities. Be sure to check all fittings
that have been opened. After system has been leak tested, make a
system performance check.
NOTE: Air conditioning systems will not normally need addition of
refrigerant oil unless definite oil loss has occurred due to
ruptured lines, leaking compressor seals, compressor
overhaul or component replacement.
ATSUGI ROTARY VANE DRAIN & REFILL
1) Before checking and adjusting oil level, operate
compressor at engine idling speed, with controls set for maximum
cooling and high blower speed, for 20 to 30 minutes to return oil to
compressor.
2) Stop engine, discharge refrigerant and remove compressor
from vehicle. See SERVICING PRECAUTIONS at beginning of article. Drain
compressor oil from compressor discharge port and measure the amount.
Oil is sometimes hard to drain when compressor is cool. Remove oil
while compressor is warm.
3) If the amount drained is less than 3 ounces, conduct leak
tests at system connections, and if necessary, repair or replace
faulty parts. Check purity of oil and adjust oil level as follows.
4) If amount drained was above 3 ounces, oil level is right.
Pour in same amount as was drained. If amount drained was below 3
ounces, pour in 3 ounces of new refrigerant oil.
BOSCH 6-CYL DRAIN & REFILL
1) Before checking and adjusting oil level, operate
compressor at engine idling speed, with controls set for maximum
cooling and high blower speed, for 20 to 30 minutes to return oil to
compressor.
2) Stop engine and discharge refrigerant. Remove refrigerant
oil level inspection plug on side of compressor. Oil should be at
lower lip of threaded hole. Add necessary new refrigerant oil (if
low). Replace inspection plug and tighten to 10-12 ft. lbs. (14-16 N.
m).
CALSONIC V5 5-CYLINDER
1) Before checking and adjusting oil level, operate
compressor at 1000-1500 engine RPM, and set controls at maximum
cooling and blowing speed for 20-30 minutes to return oil to
mounting bolts. Rotate compressor in brackets until filler plug is at
top. Clean area around filler plug and remove plug slowly. Rotate
front hub plate so notch in lobe is 110 degrees from the bottom. This
rotates ball end of top piston to align with oil fill port and allows
clearance for dipstick. See Fig. 1.
2) Insert compressor dipstick diagonally from right to left
until stop on dipstick contacts filler plug surface. Remove dipstick
and note oil fill level. Each increment on dipstick represents one
ounce of oil. Add oil if necessary to reach 3-4 ounce level.

SANDEN 7-CYL DRAIN & REFILL
1) Before checking and adjusting oil level, operate
compressor at engine idle speed, and set controls at maximum cooling

2) Stop engine. Discharge refrigerant and remove compressor
from vehicle. See SERVICING PRECAUTIONS at the beginning of this
article. Remove oil drain plug and drain oil. Measure amount of oil
drained. Install drain plug with new "O" ring.
3) If amount drained is more than 3 ounces, fill with same
amount using new oil. If amount drained is less than 3 ounces, fill
with 3 ounces. Install filler plug. Install compressor and recharge
system.
