1) Before checking and adjusting oil level, operate
compressor at engine idle speed, and set controls at maximum cooling
and high blower motor speed for 20-30 minutes to return oil to
compressor.
2) Stop engine and discharge refrigerant. See SERVICING
PRECAUTIONS. Remove refrigerant oil level inspection plug on side of
compressor. Oil should be at lower lip of threaded hole. If oil level
is low, add new refrigerant oil as necessary. Replace inspection plug
and tighten to 10-12 ft. lbs. (14-16 N.m).

for 10 minutes to return oil to compressor.
2) Stop engine. Discharge refrigerant. See SERVICING
PRECAUTIONS. Measure the amount of oil drained/discharged into
refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment.
3) Remove compressor from vehicle. Drain compressor oil from
compressor drain plug and measure oil amount. Add this amount to
