A/C Lubrication

Post by Shark »

I know there are heaps of threads on this one but i dont really know what type of pump i have. Its off a mq diesel and i have no idea whats what on it. So if i have to drill a hole and put in a plug please try and explain it well or a photo would be better.

Or would some mineral oil down the intake suffice?? It will only be used max two to three times a month.

Stop worrying.
Yes drip some oil in from time to time.
Only use pump at idle or fast idle. Turn off when driving.

Get your fittings from a hose place (Enzed) , air comp places (tools) etc.

How come only use on idle or fast idle?? Why not a normal engine speed?
