I just replaced my A/C compressor and dryer/receiver; removed and cleaned out hoses and condensor, and put back together with new seals on all fittings. The compressor had oil in it, but uncertain how much. In retrospec should have emptied and measured it. I assume it was the required 6 to 8 oz required.

Two questions:

1. How much oil should be replaced having cleaned out condensor and lines?

2. If the system is overfilled by say 4-6 oz of oil, will it matter?

Thanks

Gary
