Hello all,
I had the typical delayed cooling. No cooling at low RPM’s and just flat out hot for Florida summer. I purchased a PCV from polar. Rented the vacuum and gauge set from auto zone. Everything went pretty smooth and I now have 45 degree nice cold air within 30seconds of start up. However I am worried that I may have lost some oil when I removed the valve. Does anyone add oil after replacement?
When I removed the valve some nasty bright green liquid came out. Not sure if this was Just dye it some oil.
If you do add oil what kind and how much would be great.
Thanks
-Brian

How much of the liquid came out? If it wasn't a significant amount don't worry about it.

the dye is to help find leaks with a uv light, it was added at some point to diagnose a problem, not stock, I would not worry about anything less than a tablespoon.
