Enough AC PAG Oil

Within reasonable limits, you can't have "too much" oil in the system. If
you are concerned, get a little can (~2 oz) of oil with a tiny charge of
R134 (propellant, 1 oz?) from your FLAPS and put that in. The refrigerant
will push the oil in, so you get a little bit of both for $5.
