[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 3735235, member: 24531"] There is zero residue...however, you are correct that the noise is only when clutch is engaged. I have the new accumulator and I already filled the compressor with enough oil for the whole system minus what "might be" left in the evaporator core. I don't want to replace the compressor again but my gut feeling is that I could probably do what you are saying and be fine. But then there's the fact I already have disassembled most of what is necessary to do the accumulator, AND the suction line that goes into the expansion valve needs to be replaced so I may as well do it all the right way. But I am tempted...after i made the initial post, I thought some more and agree with you that the compressor must be bad. [/QUOTE]
