Look for the procedure online . Need to drain and measure oil in old one. Then look at balance chart!

My old compressor somehow didn't have any oil while draining out it was bone dry .But while researching and doing some statistics , I not sure if about 3.6 oz of oil will go into each component being the compressor , accumulator/dryer , and the rest of the system while refilling the refrigerant since it takes about 11oz divided into 3 sections Of oil in a TOTAL system . Not sure if I am right though.

Bet it wont take but 2/3 ounces before spilling out.

My chart shows 2 oz PAG-46 if changing the compressor only. I'd suggest a new drier and orifice tube while you are doing the job.

Yes & it didn't until I googled a couple of vids on how to add compressor oil to a compressor and it stated to add the oil thru one of the holes into the freon lines hook up through without spinning the clutch

Yes I will be swapping out the compressor , dryer , and orifice tube as well , but I am still unsure if my compressor supports rear a/c functionality

10S17F is the compressor required for NO rear ac. You need a 10S20F model since you have rear ac.
