I have the Haynes Manual at home but does anyone know how much oil should be added to the system? I'm replacing the Accumulator/Dryer and putting the system under vacuum, then refilling with R-134a. I'm swinging by advance on my way home from work and just wondered how much of everything I should pick up so I don't have to go home first to get the manual.

 

the needed levels of refrigerant should be written on a sticker at the top of the passenger shock tower. if it's not there, it might be somewhere else in your engine bay.

 

One 8 oz bottle will be plenty. Total system capacity is 4 oz on most Civics.
