you talking bout using the stock style compressor if so you gotta use a oiler like the one u use on ur shop comp ,but iv also herd that doing it this could mess up the comp someone correct me if im wrong

I was told by a friend if you put a oiler on a factory a/c compressor that it will stop it up. I used a factory one on my bodydrop and I just put a drop or two of oil in it once a week depending on how much I drove it.

i ran a ac compressor off a mazda b 2000 on my 2200 and it work fine for two years and never put any oil in it and it would build up to 200 lbs of pressure. i had the stock fitting on the back side of the compressor machined to fit a fitting to run a line back to my tank.

Finally some people who actually do not use inline oilers on the sanden comps,All i hear is people telling people about putting oilers on,Their a dry sump compressor just like the york,you put oil in the crankcase and away you go,Mine works flawlessly,I say ditch the bigass york and use you're stock a/c pump or get one that works,you'll love it.Peace!
