Jimmy,
How did you add the oil?
Directly to the compressor and drier as recommended or into the lines?
I'm starting a rebuild on mine and I'd be interested in some more details.

R-12 or 134a?

I found a synthetic oil rated for use with either that I plan to use. I have about 15 lbs of R-12 and when that's gone, I'll convert. I'm thinking I won't have to worry about oil compatability that way.
