Do you have the ability to draw a vacuum on the system? That's a critical step you must do to eliminate the moisture guaranteed to be in the system when you replace any parts before charging.

OK, I've heard of that on GM cars, nothing like that is mentioned in the shop manual for the 66.
I see that PAG oil is sold in 3 different viscosities, would I be correct in assuming the heavier weight is better for my old compressor?
No, the bind was in the well choke connection, all moves free when that is disconnected. I started it again with the choke open, it ran a little better when it warmed up but still has an unstable idle and runs too rich. Carb is back off for another look inside.Choke plate may need new bushings if it's binding up...
