I inject it into my charging hose assembly then chase it with r134a. Having said that, if the oil really were escaping with the refrigerant I would have found the leak by now. Except maybe on the compressor. It's filthy since my LIM leak leaked all over it.


The system only requires a specific amount of PAG oil and adding too much can cause damage just the same as not having enough. I've seen refrigerant cans that also include oil in them, but in reality adding more oil probably isn't really necessary if just topping off the system charge. The AC system doesn't require a whole lot of PAG oil to begin with.
