I'm getting ready to replace the AC compressor in my '92 Pathfinder and was wondering if anyone would know how to oil the new compressor? What type of oil should I use? Is the compressor oil be the refrigerant oil R12 or R134a? Any information on this matter is greatly appreciated since I can't find the answer I'm looking for on the forum. Thanks.

This is from Alldata....

 

Refrigerant Oil Type SUNISO 5GS

Refrigerant Oil Capacity 8.6 oz (US)

 

Remember, this is just the oil, not the refridgerant. There should be a sticker on your hood telling you how much the system will take. Plus, when filling, you can use the sight glass to observe the refridgerant going in, when there isd no more bubbles, you are full. The system is R12, unless you have converted(you should see stickers installed saying so). I recommend you use a reputable A/C shop to service your system.
