One other thing I would like to note. New compressors usually come with all the oil the whole system needs, pre-filled in the compressor. I know this for sure on OEM units, cant say for sure on aftermarket. Typically, you should drain the oil out of the old compressor, drain the new compressor and only add the amount of oil that came out of the old compressor, and any oil that came out of flushed parts (unless every component is brand new and has no oil, then the compressor has all the oil needed). Installing a compressor without doing this, likely is adding way more oil to the system than specified, and if your adding more on top of that, you just might have too much oil in the system. Again, not saying this is your issue, just speculation.
