# First, have someone evacuate the refrigerant from the old system. # Physically remove the old compressor, rubber hoses and the receiver/dryer. Also plan to replace the expansion valve, you may need to search for it but it's often at the bottom of the condenser, right where it connects to the hose that leads back to the passenger compartment. # Often the old compressor starts to blow chunks and you end up with debris in the refrigeration lines so you'll want to examine the oil, if it's black or anything but clear, run a "flush" solution through the remaining lines until it comes out clean. Blow it all clean with compressed air that's gone through a dryer. # Reassemble refrigeration system using new hoses, expansion valve and compressor. # Vacuum test the system to check for leaks and to remove any traces of water. # Recharge the system using 134A refrigerant and the approved oil charge either adding the exact amount of refrigerant called for in the specifications, or using a gauge set you can determine when the AC is fully charged.
If I change the AC compressor in a car, do I have to change the orifice?
my ac compressor is bad and i want to change it myself how can i do this
No you don't have to change the A/C Compressor.
20qt w/ AC 17.5qt w/o AC
where is the a/c relay located on an 1989 gmc k1500 with digital dash controller.
The ac compressor clutch is mounted on the front of the compressor and is a replaceable part. However depending on the complexity of the clutch change out it may be overall better to change the compressor and clutch together.
my ac dont work
yes there is a seal on the front of compressor that can go bad and leak freon.
The ac compressorThe ac compressor
Do y need puller to replace ac clutch on compressor. 2004 expition
You are low on refrigerant, google R134a...
An AC compressor is part of an air conditioner which may be used in a car's AC system. The compressor is used to change the pressure between the AC's compartments in order to help condense the refrigerant gas back into a liquid.
