5.
With A/C compressor high and low side ports in an upright position, slowly remove high side cap retaining bolt to release nitrogen (N(2)) charge.
6.
Remove high and low side caps. (Install high and low side caps on A/C compressor removed from vehicle, to prevent any oil from leaking out

Install oil drain adapters on low and high side ports of new A/C compressor.
NOTICE:
PAG oil drained from the new A/C compressor should be drained into a clean, dry container and used immediately. PAG oil absorbs moisture from
the air. Failure to close the A/C system or cap the container that the PAG oil is in will result in moisture contaminated PAG oil. Containers of PAG
oil exposed for an extended amount of time should be discarded.
IMPORTANT:
Oil drained from the new A/C compressor should be drained into a clean, dry container and then reused.
