Not sure what you mean?

That page is where I came up w/ 8 oz, based on total volume for all components.

good luck

It says condenser 10cc (1/3 oz), Evaporator 25cc (5/6 oz), line/hoses 10cc (1/3 oz), receiver 10cc (1/3 oz), compressor 100cc (3 1/3 oz)

So for the lines and hoses it says 1/3 oz so for every 3 lines/hoses that is an oz. How many lines/hoses are there?

I checked my Haynes Automotive Heating and Air Conditioning manual which has a listing of oil capacities. It says 3-4 oz for 1990-91 Accord. Guess I put in too much oil, but it hasn't seemed to hurt anything.

good luck

I think it was r12 to begin with, correct?

Rule of thumb I've heard on conversions from r12 to 134, 80% re-charge with 134 and test from there.
