Avenger V6-2.7L Flex Fuel (2009)
The Denso 10SR18 A/C compressor is filled with refrigerant oil from the factory. Use the following procedure to drain and measure refrigerant oil from
the Denso 10SR18 A/C compressor.
1. Position the A/C compressor so that the refrigerant oil can drain out of the suction and discharge ports into a suitable clean measured container.
Hold the A/C compressor in this position until all of the refrigerant oil is drained from the new compressor.
2. Drain all of the refrigerant oil from the new A/C compressor into a clean measured container.
3. Refill the new A/C compressor with the same amount of refrigerant oil that was drained out of the old compressor. Use only clean refrigerant oil of
the type recommended for the A/C compressor in the vehicle.
CAUTION: Failure to properly adjust the refrigerant oil level prior to installation of a replacement compressor can prevent the A/C system
from operating as designed and cause serious compressor damage.
