Do you know if the two holes on top of the compressed each have their own o ring. I found one on the ground. thanks
Great video!!! This is the only one of it's kind for the early 2k Chevy (probably 3.4L engines). I have a 2002 Monte Carlo that I need to replace the compressor after 15 years. Gauges show low pressure on the high side. The compressor very slowly raises the high pressure side, but it takes about 10 minutes of idle to get to only 80PSI (still low). Clutch works – just weak pressure. Anyway, I see you removed all the lines – the ones for the orifice tube looks to be a pain due to being under the vacuum brake booster – but that was a great idea to take it off at the evaporator since that is easier to get to and pull it out from there. No doubt will be removing the splash guard to pull the compressor out. Going to be a project to get this all done, but your video helped a great deal! Thanks for spending the time to make it!!!
Mind coming to my house and showing me how to do this in person? I don't want another summer without AC….haha and I know my car isn't worth half of what they want to replace it with labor!
DuPont's trademark name for R12 is "Freon." Since 1994, automakers use R134a in new vehicles and that's not the same as Freon. Plus, you can't walk into any auto parts store and pick up Freon off the shelf, just R134a. Just wanted to clear up the confusion between the two. Great video! (ASE and EPA certified)
