A/C compressor oil

I got a used comrpessor for my 90 Sedan w/ 4AFE
. Now it has been converted to r134 but the sticker is unreadable. What type & how much compressor oil do I need? I am changing all the o-rings and the receiver/drier. Thanks.

ND-OIL 8 or PAG 46. Some aftermarket conversions may use Ester oil, but the Toyota recommended oil is ND-OIL 8 (which is equivalent to PAG 46).

be careful and don't over fill it with oil, I found out in the past that my corolla did not like having too much oil, nor did it like not enough..

Thanks for the tip. I found out that 7.7oz of oil if it is empty.
