  1. Replacement compressors are shipped with a specific amount of refrigerant oil. Drain, measure, and discard oil from old compressor.

See COMPONENT REFRIGERANT OIL CAPACITIES (ACURA, HONDA & ISUZU - NIPPONDENSO)  table. If no oil is drained from old compressor, DO NOT drain more than 1.7 ounces from replacement compressor.
  3. If replacement compressor is shipped without refrigerant oil, add refrigerant oil to replacement compressor equal to amount of oil drained from old compressor. When any other component is replaced, add refrigerant oil to component as specified. See COMPONENT REFRIGERANT OIL CAPACITIES (ACURA, HONDA & ISUZU - NIPPONDENSO)  table.
