Assembly Procedure

  1. Install the clutch hub key into the hub keyway. Allow the key to project approximately 3.2 mm (1/8 inch) out of the keyway. The hub key is curved slightly to provide an interference fit in the hub key groove.
  2. Be sure the frictional surface of the clutch plate and the pulley rotor are clean before installing the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly.
  3. Notice : Do not drive or pound on the clutch hub or the shaft. Internal damage to the compressor may result.

  4. Align the clutch hub key with the shaft keyway. Place the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly onto the compressor shaft.

  6. Remove the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B center bolt and reverse the body direction on the center bolt. The body of the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B should be backed off sufficiently to allow the center bolt to be threaded onto the end of the compressor shaft.
  7. Notice : If the center bolt is threaded fully onto the end of the compressor shaft, or if the body of the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B is held and the center bolt is rotated, the key will wedge and could break the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly.

  8. Install the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B and the bearing onto the clutch drive plate. Thread the center bolt onto the compressor shaft.
  9. Hold the center bolt with a wrench. Tighten the hex portion of the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B body to press the hub onto the shaft. Tighten the body several turns.
  10. Remove the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B and check to see that the clutch hub key is still in place in the keyway before installing the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly to its final position. The air gap between frictional surfaces of the clutch drive plate and the clutch pulley rotor should be 0.38 to 0.64 mm (0.015 to 0.025 inch.).

J-9553-1 O-Ring Remover
J-23128-A Seal Seat Remover/Installer
J-33011 O-Ring Installer
J-34614 Shaft Seal Protector

Important : A shaft seal should not be replaced because a small amount of oil is found on the adjacent surface. The seal is designed to leak some oil for lubrication purposes. A shaft seal should be changed only when a large amount of sprayed oil is found and then only after actual refrigerant leakage is found by using an approved leak detection procedure. Refer to "Leak Testing the Refrigerant System" in this section.

Should a compressor shaft seal ever have to be replaced, the receiver-dryer in this system must also be removed from the vehicle. The oil in the receiver-dryer must then be drained, measured and replaced. Refer to "Discharging, Adding Oil, Evacuating, and Charging Procedures for A/C System" in this section.

Removal Procedure

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Recover the refrigerant. Refer to "Discharging, Adding Oil, Evacuating, and Charging Procedures for A/C System" in this section.
  3. Loosen and reposition the compressor in the mounting brackets.
  4. Remove the clutch drive plate and hub assembly from the compressor. Refer to "Clutch Plate and Hub Assembly" in this section.
  5. Use the snap ring pliers J-5403 to remove the shaft seal retaining ring.

Installation Procedure

    Notice : Seals must not be reused. Always use a new specification service seal kit. Be sure that the seal to be installed is not scratched or damaged in any way. The seal must be free of lint and dirt that may damage the seal surface or prevent proper sealing.

  1. Dip the new seal O-ring in clean polyalkaline glycol (PAG) refrigerant oil and assemble the O-ring onto the O-ring installer J-33011.
  2. Insert the O-ring installer J-33011 into the compressor neck until the installer "bottoms." Lower the moveable slide of the O-ring installer J-33011 to release the O-ring into the seal O-ring lower groove. (The top groove of the compressor neck is for the shaft seal retainer ring.)

Leak Testing (External)

    Tools Required

    J-9625-A Pressure Testing Connector
  1. Install the pressure testing connector J-9625-A to the suction/discharge ports on the compressor.
  2. Attach the center hose of the manifold gauge set on the charging station to a refrigerant drum standing in an upright position. Open the valve on the drum.
  3. Connect the charging station high- and low-pressure lines to the corresponding fittings on the pressure testing connector J-9625-A (or hoses equipped with valve depressors). The suction port (low-side) of the compressor has a large internal opening. The discharge port (high-side) has a smaller internal opening into the compressor.
  4. Open the low-pressure control, the high-pressure control, and the refrigerant control on the charging station to allow the refrigerant vapor to flow into the compressor.
  5. Using a leak detector, check for leaks at the high-pressure relief valve seal, the housing seal, the rear head seal, the center cylinder seal, the through-bolt gaskets, and the compressor shaft seal. After checking for leaks, shut off the low-pressure control, the high-pressure control, and the refrigerant control lines on the charging station.
  6. If an external leak is present, perform the necessary corrective measures and recheck for leaks to verify that the leak has been corrected.
  7. Loosen the manifold gauge hose connections to the gauge adapters connected to the low and high sides. Allow the vapor pressure to release from the compressor. If valve depressor-type hoses are used, loosen the hose connections at the gauge manifold to release vapor pressure from the compressor.
  8. Disconnect both gauge hoses. Remove the pressure testing connector J-9625-A.
