7. Remove and discard the seal seat O-ring (2) from the
compressor neck using O-ring remover J-9553-01.
8. Recheck the shaft and inside of the compressor
neck for dirt or foreign material and be sure these
areas are perfectly clean before installing new parts.
Cleaning
Thoroughly clean O-ring seal groove in front head.
CAUTION: Seals should not be re-used. Always use
a new specification service seal on rebuild. Be sure
that the seal to be installed is not scratched or
damaged in anyway. Make sure that the seal seat
and seal are free of lint and dirt that could damage
the seal surface or prevent sealing.
Installation
1. Dip the new seal seat O-ring (1) in clean 525
viscosity refrigerant oil and assemble onto 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 to release
the O-ring into the seal O-ring lower groove (The
compressor neck top groove is for the shaft seal
retainer ring.) Rotate the installer to seat the O-ring
and remove the installer.
3. Dip the new seal in clean 525 viscosity refrigerant oil
and assemble seal to Seal Installer J-23128-A, by
turning handle clockwise. The stamped steel case
side of the lip seal must be engaged with knurled
tangs of installer so that flared-out side of lip seal is
facing and installed towards the compressor. Install
seal protector J-34614, in the seal lip and place over
the compressor shaft, and push the seal in place with
a rotary motion or place the seal protector J-34614
over end of compressor shaft, and slide the new seal
onto the shaft with a rotary motion until it stops. Take
care not to dislodge the O-ring. Be sure the seal (2)
makes good contact with the O-ring. Disengage the
installer from the seal and remove the installer
J-23128-A and the seal protector J-34614.
CAUTION: Handling and care of seal protector is
important. If seal protector is nicked or the bottom
flared, the new seal may be damaged during
installation.
4. Install the new seal retainer ring with its flat side
against the Seal, using Snap-Ring Pliers. Use the
sleeve from O-ring installer J-33011 to press in on
the seal retainer ring so that it snaps into its groove.
5. To leak test, install compressor leak test fixture
J-39893 on rear head of compressor and connect
gage charging lines and Refrigerant Recovery
System. Pressurize suction and high-side of
compressor with R-134a Refrigerant. Temporarily
install (M9
1.25 thread on shaft) nut and, with the
compressor in horizontal position, rotate the
compressor shaft in normal direction of rotation
several times by hand. Leak test the seal area and
correct and leak found. Recover the refrigerant.
Remove shaft nut.

Service Precaution
WARNING: IF SO EQUIPPED WITH A
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS),
REFER TO THE SRS COMPONENT AND WIRING
LOCATION VIEW IN ORDER TO DETERMINE
WHETHER YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING. WHEN YOU ARE REFORMING SERVICE ON
OR NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING, REFER TO THE SRS SERVICE
INFORMATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW WARNINGS
COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE AIR BAG
DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL INJURY, OR
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use
ONLY the exact part number for that application.
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED , do not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally,such coatings
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When
you install fasteners, use the correct tightening
sequence and specification. Following these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and
systems.
