Thanks George and Larry. I drained the oil from the compressor and got about two or three ounces of clean oil. Tomorrow I will get a quart of R12 Mineral Oil from Napa and will fill the compressor with 10 ounces of new oil and test the dip stick that I fabricated. I have already amassed an assortment of R12 cans from craigslist and plan to start with a charge of 2 1/2 pounds once the system is fully assembled and vacuum tested.
