    Question Lubricant properties

    Hi,

    Do polyolester and Alkybenzenes/mineral oils retain there lubrication properties when mixed?.
    Have a supermarket pack, half the compressors marked with Shell SD other with POE. R22 refrigerant,My gut reaction is to drain as much as possible,Clean seperator float assembly(due to frequent oil problems) evacuate and recharge with suitable oil.
    What do you think would be the best solution.

    Best regards

    Mark
