What type of pag oil and how much?
Vehicle is a 2000 Chevy Cavalier. So I am replacing the compressor, accumulator, condenser and orifice tube in my AC system and am wondering what type and how much of Pag oil to put in to the system. My new compressor has 7oz already in it and was wondering if I need to add more and if I do, do I add it to the condenser, etc?
Thanks in advance

what vehicle? And 7oz is quite a bit generally you don't put more than 2oz. per component depending on what you replace. Depending on the vehicle sometimes there are charts that tell you how much for each component.
Can't believe I never listed the vehicle, lol. 2000 chevy cavalier, 2.2L OHV. It is 7oz for the compressor I found out after a lot of research thru GM, GDP (maker of the compressor) and rock auto. The funny thing is my vehicle lists 9oz of a GM oil that was discontinued and they say to use the equivalent PAG 150 but the compressor came pre filled with PAG 46....which ended up being ok for the system.
