What is the freon capacity of a Ford Escape?

Answer 1

For a 2001 V6 (3.0) Escape the freon capacity is approx 32 oz, dont forget that when you add freon that the cans at the auto parts store also have oil in them, so that needs to be subtracted from the 32. Autozone will tell you that your system needs 9 oz of oil in it with the freon, but their system answers are wrong, the system in your car cannot hold this much. A new compressor should have 1.5 or 2 oz in it when you buy it, and then each can of 134a you buy has 1 oz in it, two big cans are about all you need to fill your discharged system. These 4 oz of oil are all you need. Hope this helps.
