How much A/C PAG oil to add?

I have a 2000 GT and have brand new compressor, condenser and accumulator. So all of the components are dry. I guess the only place oil can be left would be in the evap core and in the lines.

The instructions say to add 2oz. oil to the compressor, through the drain plug hole I'm assuming. So how much additional oil should I add, and should it be added directly to the accum and condenser before assembling the system?

I really want to get this right since I'll have ~$600 into this project by the time I get it evac'ed and recharged. I also have a new orifice tube to install as well. I got all AC Delco parts from RockAuto.

Thanks in advance!

Re: How much A/C PAG oil to add?

Here is the requested info, by doing a simple search I found it.

Refrigerant Oil Distribution Specifications

A/C Compressor - If less than 1 oz was drained add 2 oz. If more than 1 oz was drained add equal amount.

Condenser - 1 oz

Evaporator - 3 oz

Accumulator - 1 oz plus amount removed

Abrupt oil loss due to a large leak - Add 3 oz plus the required amount for the component being replaced (cause of the large leak).
