Default Compresser oil

How many ounces of oil does an A/C compressor for a 94 Corvette LT1 require, 4 or 8?

My 92 LT1 is 8 oz. Should be the same on your 94.

:iagree:
It should be marked on the back of the compressor, I think in metric...230ml since it's a import compressor. :D

Oil charge needs to be spread throughout the system which should be flushed prior to installation of the new compressor. Since it's difficult to get to instatlled components (without an oil injector), place 4 ozs in the compressor & 4ozs in the accumulator (which should also be replaced).
