For replacement oil he recommended 10w-30. The compressor came sealed from
York and was filled with refrigerant-specific oil, and a LOT of it! After
puking out about 6 ounces, it still has about 10 in there, by the dipstick
anyway. Not sure how much the installer added, then siphoned back out. I can
tell you one thing for sure, getting that stuff out of the system was a
PITA!

Oil breaks down rubber. Get the oil cleaned out.
