Have a 2017 Expedition XLT.
Known facts:
About to replace the radiator and have conflicting information.
1) When replacing the radiator, is it necessary to evacuate the AC compressor/lines to remove the radiator?
2) If necessary, I understand that I have to recharge the compressor (have the necessary equipment), but is it necessary to add more refrigerant oil, when the compressor was not replaced? I know that adding too much is not good, so when I do this, I do not want to add oil if it is not necessary.
Thanks in advance
Michael
