I bought a new A/C compressor for my 84 brat. The system was already converted over to R134a. The new compressor does not come with any oil in it. Can someone tell me how much oil I should add and if I should use PAG 46? Thanks in advance!

Thank you!

A/C works perfect. I put one can in for now runs at 38 degrees. Thanks for your help!

Ok will do. Thank you. I’ll pull it down for 30 mins and than charge the system. Sound good?

I might try it than. I have the system under vacuum now for 24 hours. I had it down to 29hg and it’s holding steady at 22hg. Is that good enough?

The fitting at the evaporator is ok. But the fitting at the compressor is cut. If i get a hose made it won’t have the fitting to mount at the compressor.

I am in need of a low side A/C line for my 84 Brat. Someone replaced the hose but cut off the flange on the compressor and evaporator and secured the hose with 2 hose clamps on each end. Even though this is the low pressure line I’m assuming that the 2 hose clamps on each end will still cause leaking of R134A? I tried Ebay and rock auto but the hoses don’t seem to be made anymore. Anyone know of a source or can I get them made at a hose store? I don’t know what the end of the evaporator looks like because that was cut off to. So if I had the hoses made I would still need a new evaporator. I would like to replace everything but I don’t think that is going to happen. Any thoughts? Thank you

Perfect thank you. Both of my fittings are the same.

On my 84 brat can someone tell me which port is the high and low side? I can’t find it on the web or the manual. I have 2 ports on the compressor and than I have another where the glass sight eye is. Thanks

You can see in this photo this is the dashmat I need and ordered. It’s obviously different than the one I got.

I’m going to call them Monday. I believe the error is on the manufacturer. When I put in 1984 brat GL it shows the correct dash cover. What I received was different. If I don’t need to send the others back I will gladly donate them for free if someone here can use them. I’ll keep everyone posted. Thank you

Your right it was a typo. It’s not a 83 it’s a 84. Sorry for the confusion but thank you everyone for the help and pics. It is greatly appreciated!

My car is a EA81 1984 GL. Maybe I should try a 1985 brat instead of 1984?..
