I'm just waiting to see how long it keeps working. We're not using the van now, but I have been starting it each day and checking since I posted. Still working well. So, at this point - I'm going to assume that maybe the problem was with the oil not being disperesed evenly throughout the system? The entire initial 5 ounce oil charge was in the new compressor when I started. All else was dry. After charging, and the AC not working, and pressures surging - I know the surge wasn't the compressor cycling (it was running steady).
Basically, it didn't work and I gave up went into the house. That was after fooling with it for maybe half an hour after the charging was done. Next day, it worked fine and is still working fine. I've never had that happen before, and it seems the first half hour should of been ample time for the oil to circulate. So, I don't pretent to know what happened, but it IS working fine. No surging, cools fast, etc.
