Compressor (SANDENI
Replacement
1.lf the compressor is marginally operable, run the
engine at idle speed, and let the air conditioner
work for a few minutes. then shut the engine off.
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/
charging station (see page 22-27l..
Remove the bolts, then disconnect the suction and
discharge lines from the compressor.
NOTE: Plug or cap the lines immediately after dis-
connecting them to avoid moisture and dust con-
tamination.

Remove the condenser (see page 22-44).
NOTE: Do not disconnect the discharge hose from
the condenser.

10. lnstall in the reverse order of removal. Make note of
the following items.
. lf you're installing a new compressor, drain all
the refrigerant oil from the removed compressor,
and measure its volume. Subtract the volume of
drained oil from '130m? 14 1/3 tl'o2,4 6 lmp'oz);
the result is the amount of oil you should drain
from the new compressor (through the suction
fifting).
. Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fit-
ting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil
before installing them
NOTE: Be sure to use the right O-rings for HFC-
134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage
. Use refrigerant oil (SP-10) for R-134a Sanden and
Hadsys spiral type compressors only'
o To avoid contamination, do not return the oil to
the container once dispensed, and never mix it
with other refrigerant oils.
. lmmediatelY after using the oil, replace the cap
on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture
absorption.
. Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it
may damage the painu if the refrigerant oil con-
tacts the paint, wash it off immediately
. Adjust the Ay'C compressor belt (see page 22-43)
and the power steering pump belt (see section 17)'
. Charge the system (see page 22-46), and test its
oerformance (see Page 22-241

Be sure to use the right O,ringsfor HFC-134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.
Use refrigerant oil {DENSO, ND-OtL8) for HFC-134aDENSO piston type compressors only.To avoid contamination, do not return the oil tothe container once dispensed, and never mix itwith other refrigerant oils.
lmmediately after using the oil, replace the capon the container, and seal it to avoid moisture
absorption.
Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; itmay damage the paint; if the refrigerant oil con-tacts the paint, wash it off immediatelv.
