You wouldn't know how much oil to use. So, if it was purged slowly (no oil loss) you probably are ok without any oil.OK, sifting through all of this, I think I am reading the following:
1. Replace Accumulator
2. Vacuum on the line for 30-60 minutes to remove moisture from the rest of the system and check for leaks
3. Straight R134 with no sealant
So, with a new accumulator and condenser, but the original compressor and lines, how will I know how much oil to use?
https://www.amazon.com/FJC-2487-PAG-Oil-Viscosity/dp/B000OCIUKQ put half the bottle and you should be okay.It was purged slowly via the schrader.
Oil levels not affected by my mistake of leaving the lines unplugged for so long?
I would think with a new drier AND accumulator, I should add at least a bit of oil?
21 oz (1.32 lbs, .60kg). And don't use the oil charge listed above. Use PAG 46 oil. Going by the description of what you did, one to two ounces will suffice.Okay, but as JEWC said, tossing a few ozs of oil in, even if no absolutely necessary, won't hurt?
And whats the overall capacity so I know how much 134A to buy . . .
PAG100 is the most commonly used in ac repair today, at least in my area.21 oz (1.32 lbs, .60kg). And don't use the oil charge listed above. Use PAG 46 oil. Going by the description of what you did, one to two ounces will suffice.
