AC Compressor
I'm working on putting in a new AC compressor, the new unit has
PAG oil in it. I want to use R-12 when I recharge the system,
should I drain the PAG oil and put in the other stuff or leave it in?

If you're going to use r-12 you'll want to use compatible mineral oil.

Okay thanks, I'll get the other oil and drain and re-fill the new unit when it arrives.
