How much oil do you put in the compressor Before charging the system with R134?
On 94 mustang. Please and thank you!

Depends. Is the compressor new? Did you remove the old oil from the old compressor? Heres the procedure directly from the Ford database for our year.
NOTE: Service A/C compressors are shipped without compressor oil.

Prior to reinstalling the existing A/C compressor or installing a new A/C compressor , the A/C compressor must be serviced with the correct amount of oil as follows:

Obtain a clean container that can also be used as a measuring device.
Place the A/C clutch (2884) on the A/C compressor shaft so the shaft can be rotated.
Rotate the shaft by hand six to eight revolutions, collecting the oil in a clean measuring device.
If the amount of oil drained from the old A/C compressor is between 85-142 ml (3-5 ounces), pour the same amount of clean Motorcraft YN-12b refrigerant oil or equivalent meeting Ford specification WSH-M1C231-B plus 30 ml (1 ounce) into the new A/C compressor .
If the amount of oil that was removed from the old A/C compressor is greater than 142 ml (5 ounces), pour the same amount drained of clean Motorcraft YN-12b refrigerant oil or equivalent meeting Ford specification WSH-M1C231-B into the new A/C compressor .
If the amount of refrigerant oil that was removed from the old A/C compressor is less than 85 ml (3 ounces), pour 85 ml (3 ounces) of clean Motorcraft YN-12b refrigerant oil or equivalent meeting Ford specification WSH-M1C231-B into the new A/C compressor .

I wish. Its pretty hard to even find a mustang in a junkyard around here, let alone one dedicated to just stangs. Whatre you looking for?
