Rotary Vane
- Before checking and adjusting oil level, operate engine at 1200 RPM, and set controls at maximum cooling and high blower motor speed for 10 minutes to return oil to compressor.
- Stop engine. Discharge refrigerant and remove compressor from vehicle. See SERVICING PRECAUTIONS at beginning of article. Drain compressor oil through compressor discharge port and measure oil amount.
- If amount drained is less than 3 ounces, conduct leak tests at system connections. Repair or replace faulty parts as necessary. Check purity of oil and adjust oil level as follows.
- If amount drained is 3 ounces or more, oil level is okay. Fill with same amount drained, using new oil. If amount drained is less than 3 ounces, pour in 3 ounces of new refrigerant oil.
