Missing compressor fluid?
Hi,
I have an '85 F-150 that I put a new compressor on. I put 7 oz. of oil into the new compressor before installing it and two in the evaporator.
I charged the system but the new compressor made a horrible noise. I pulled it to return it and dumped the oil from it. I was careful and measured all that came out.
Only 2 oz. of oil came out after putting 7 in. Is this expected? I'm guessing the 5 oz. that are missing went through the system.
When I vacuum the system again to install the new compressor, will that oil get vacuumed out?
Thanks,
Sal
