Message through the drain bolt, as well as whatever come out of the low and high side ports, into a container. Flush the compressor with new oil by pouring into the low side port. Turn the compressor by hand to circulate the oil, and drain it. Repeat until the oil runs clear. The mineral oil in the system is yellow.

Here is a flush procedure that you can look at for reference

The old oil that you initially drained into the container....measure this and add the same volume of fresh oil back into the compressor through the low side point when you are done flushing
