REMOVAL
1.If the compressor is marginally operable, run the engine at idle speed, and let the air conditioning work for a few
minutes, then shut the engine off.
2. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
3. Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/charging station (Refer to HA - 8).
4. Loosen the drive belt (Refer to HA - 14).
5. Remove the bolts, then disconnect the suction line (A) and discharge line (B) from the compressor. Plug (C) or cap
the lines immediately after disconnecting them to avoid moisture and dust contamination.
6.Disconnect the compressor clutch connector (A), and then remove 4 mounting bolts and the compressor.
INSTALLATION
1.Make sure of the length of compressor mounting bolts.
2.Install in the reverse order of removal, and note these items.
a. If 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 120cc(4.20 oz.) the result is the amount of oil you should drain

4.Remove the screw (A) from the field coil ground terminal. Remove the retainer ring (B) and then remove the field
coil (C) from the shaft with a puller. Be careful not to damage the coil and compressor.
5.Reassemble the compressor clutch in the reverse order of disassembly, and note these items :
