Ok I just purchased this 96 geo tracker as a second car to save gas. Unfortunately the ac had a leak. The previous owner had it charged with leak detector but couldn’t find the leak. I found the leak in the evaporator this weekend. I have ordered a evaporator, drier, and expansion valve. My question is after I vacuum it down, what is the correct r134a to add? Should I get some with pag oil already in it. Does the oil get added with the refrigerant or to the compressor or both? The factory service manual calls for 1.32 lbs of r134 and 3.4 oz of pag oil. Is the pag oil amount the amount to add to the compressor directly or thru the low side charging port? Also does it matter what type of pag oil to use? I am not too concerned about damaging etc…this is a second car and I am looking at this as a learning experience. Any help would be appreciated. Btw I am using ac gauges an vacuum pump.
