Also , oil amount is critical. Dont over fill oil in this system .Remember the little tube for the POA is an oil bypass tube because the POA shuts down the flow before icing, but the oil was allowed to bypass to keep the compressor lubed.

Probably5-7 ounces TOTAL in the system will be fine.

Another guy I know had the same "Tube" conversion and I think he had too much oil in it. It hydrolocked the compressor . Game over.

Not trying to scare you, just wanted to make you aware to measure the oil amount in the compressor and the rest of the system when you seal it up.
