I have a Sanden AC compressor that I want to install on our GMC. I want to use Duracool,
so I need to flush all the PAG oil from the compressor. The only info I’ve found on flushing
said to dump the PAG, refill with mineral oil, slosh it around, dump it, and then fill with
fresh mineral oil. Is this adequate? Do I need to do more to get a good job? I only want
to do this once, so I’d like to do the best job possible. Any help is appreciated.

That would work or you could slosh some solvent in it then some mineral oil and dump it before refilling with mineral oil. I assume it is going on a system that has mineral oil in it ? If the system has Pag oil in it the Duracool is ok to use with Pag oil
