Default Should I add oil to R134a?

I flushed the entire system, and installed a brand new compressor. The
Haynes manual says I should pour 2oz of oil each into the evaporator
and condensor before evacuating the system. However, my R134a bottle
says that it has oil already mixed in it. My question is, should I add
this oil, or should I assume that the oil in the refrigirent is enough?
I assume that I still need to pour some oil into the compressor ports
to keep it lubricated during startup.
