A/C Refrigerant Oil Replacement

Recommended PAG oil: DENSO ND-OIL 8:

Add the recommended refrigerant oil in the amount listed if you replace any of the following parts.

To avoid contamination, do not return the oil to the container once dispensed, and never mix it with other refrigerant oils.
Immediately after using the oil, reinstall the cap on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture absorption.
Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if it gets on the paint, wash it off immediately.
