where to add A/C compressor oil?
I'd like to add some UV dye oil to my AC system on the 2.8L Firebird. I bought the UV light kit.
What do I disconnect and where do I pour the oil in??
I've replaced an entire AC system before, but I used the Refridgerant + oil cans to recharge it through the service port.

Four Seasons P/N# 59576 will allow you to inject oil or dye (or oil
with dye for that matter) throught the low side port. Or you can buy
just a dye injector P/N# 59038 and use glow sticks.

you can get a can of refrigerant with UV dye already in it if you don't want to have to buy a special tool.
The last time I looked at walmart, the refrigerant cans with the uv dye were only a buck or two more than the regular cans, and one can is enough to see it.
