If it's using R-12 it's mineral oil.
R-134 uses PAG oil.
The 2 types are not compatible - they will gum up.
Safest way - use ESTER OIL - it's compatible with both oil types and both freons. yes parts houses have it - maybe 10% more expensive.
Drain out the old parts, then put the same amount back in..
