Repairing A/C system, precautions to take???

Hey all!
Back in October I replaced the A/C condensor in my '92 9000 turbo, but when I tried to thread the old drier-condensor hose back on, the aluminum in the hose threads prevented me from doing so. Rather than strip the aluminum threads on the new condensor I decided to wait till I had a new hose. I capped the condensor AND the hose and used electrical tape to fully seal each end.
Well, summers here and I need some A/C for trips to the beach. I'm ordering a new hose from eeuro now but I'm wondering if, because i've driven the car for over half-a-year without running the compressor, I should be taking some precaution...like adding Esteroil to the system or...or filling the system with a 134A freon/lubricant combo? Any advice?
Thanks!
