You can recharge the compressor with R134a refrigerant gas, but not with coolant. But, the compressor will have to be purged of any existing refrigerant gas, before recharging with new gas.You shouldn't mix old with new, because depending on the age of the unit, it may still have Freon in it. Freon has been banded by the EPAand doesn't mix with the new gas.
Hope this helped answer your question. Thanks for choosing FixYa.
