Any A/C guru's out there? need help
 

while removing my A/C compressor yesterday, i accidentally unbolted the large bolt in the back of the A/C. Nothing came out of it so i quicky put in back in...

then when removing the compressor from its housing oil started to come out of some of the lines..

Did i damage the compressor? those A/C lines should be free of any oil right? is it still OK to use once i clean out the lines?

what ever you do don't clean out those lines! that oil is supposed to be in there. It flows thru the a/c system and lubricates the compressor. as for the bolt i'm not sure of it's purpose. unless your talking about the bolt that hold the lines to the compressor.

Pics please

no its a bolt type of thing that is below the hard line bolt on the compressor.

well i didnt know any oil was supposed to flow in the lines that go to the A/C radiator... because thats where the oil was coming out of..
