    help with mitsubishi starion 82 model car a/c



    I have been asked to look at a Mitsubishi Starion a/c
    82 model car

    any ideas where i could find the specs on the system for oil volume , refrigerant charge

    was on r12 but will change to 134a with poe oil

    how much oil and refrigerant will be needed.


    The primary function of the design engineer is to make things difficult for the fabricator and impossible for the serviceman.

    You could ofcourse consider using a "drop in" refrigerant so save you changing the oil.

    The system has been open for around 2 months so using the old oil is not a good idea

    i have come across the specs for the 88 starion , just seeing if there was some solid information on the 82

    I work in manufacturing of display cases so the prefered refrigerant is R134a

    Yes i will have to change oil to P.O.E

    thanks for the advice guys !

    OK, but don't forget all of the seals and check the hoses, Oh and the drier of course.
