Did I put enough oil for the compressor? (AC RELATED)

[mo5005]

I recharge my 88 Volvo 760 with about 32 oz of this stuff.

From the cans i added it says it has about:
3 oz of Sub-Zero Synthetic..

The reason why i worry is because when i first start the AC i hear alittle noise from the compressor..... i just wanna make that im not gonna mess up my compressor.

As for the cooling.... its okay. Hasn't gotten hot enough to tell.

Your 88 didn't come with an R134 system, did you upgrade it?

Had to have been upgraded somehow, or the hoses wouldn't fit.

If it was a slow leak and you added 3 ozs. of oil, you probably added to much oil. To much oil reduces cooling.

1. its already converted
2. i had to fix an o-ring leak.... so i had to remove all the refrigerant, I pulled a vacuum, and then i put in about 32 ounces of refrigerant from the cans i pictured above. .... along with these cans came about 3 oz of lubricant.

Is this enough for a diesel compressor?

You only need to replace the lost oil.
