Yup that's the one. If you look from the front of the engine it's right next to your dipstick for engine oil

Well... I replaced the pressure switch in the line next to the dip stick, clean the contacts and the problem of "off" and "on" air conditioning is still there.. Any other suggestions.. the clutch is working but drops off after a few minutes..The pressure is good, check by a mechanic..Seems to be worse when it gets above 85*.. when you really need it to work..

Clint,

Intermittent? Have you read this?
SpringerPop's Compressor Clutch Air Gap

It's worth a shot, and should cost you nothing.

Well that was as easy cheap fix..!! I remove the clutch plate after measuring a .041 feeler gap as you instructed Pops. Remove the one and only small washer shim and replaced it with a thinner one and it now measures .020 gap on the clutch plates.. and it's FIXED the problem of off and on air conditioning.. It works Great !! thx again..!! I love this forum..!!
