Compressor Oil

MB-Dude · 01-10-2012, 05:12 PM

Just when I thought it was safe to re-enter the muddy waters of the M113 compressor, I came across a bit of a dilemma... Specifically, which Mobil Jet Oil is used in the M113 Compressor (AMG model, if there's a difference)? Apparently, there are 3 different versions of 'Mobil Jet Oil'...
Mobil Jet Oil ~ 1st Generation product
Mobil Jet Oil II ~ 2nd Generation product
Mobil Jet Oil 254 ~ 3rd Generation product
As some of us have found out recently regarding 722.9 transmission fluids, newer is not always desirable or compatible to older. So, does anyone have an idea or opinion on which Mobil Jet Oil is correct for an M113 compressor?

I'm leaning to the 2nd generation product since my compressor is 2005 vintage. But I am quite interested in reading what others may have to say.

Cheers,
Jeff

Which one did you choose: the Manual says Jet II? Did you change it yourself? Was one can enough?What is the torque setting for the SC drain plug? How did you extract and refill it?
