Rick, Thanks!. I think that amount must be right. He told me that I would need 11 oz of oil. He said add to compressor and put the rest in the condenser,etc. So you must be right. On the expansion valve here is what was said: These types of valves, although efficient, have some disadvantages

Regardless if the crank snout is drilled or not, that bolt shouldn't be used. It's a fine thread and can strip easily. Best to get the right tool for job. Better to get a crankshaft socket and use a 1/2" breaker bar. Besides, with the socket you can turn the engine both ways if needed.
