Adding Oil

Adding oil to the V-5 A/C system should take place AFTER discharge and BEFORE evacuation procedures by removing the refrigeration suction hose at the accumulator outlet pipe connection, pouring the correct quantity of new refrigerant oil into the hose or pipe and then properly reconnecting hose to pipe (see DISCHARGING Step No. 4 and V-5 REFRIGERANT OIL DISTRIBUTION for specific quantity instructions).
