thanks, but I pulled the belt off & the pulley spins but has slight amout of roughness & a little play from front to back. I'm sure th noise is in the pulley / clutch assembly, I'm not certain as to how hard the pulley/clutch is to change & whether or not it takes a special tool to remove the pully? thanks for the help.

update for any one intrested....it is a pretty easy fix, bearing in pulley was approx 1\2 gone. pulley is held on with snap ring & was not that difficult to change, just had to unbolt compressor to get additional room to get to the pulley.

Clutch Noisey

Did you change the Pulley or just the bearing. Mine is half gone also and I'm not sure if I can just replace the bearing.

Thanks

noisey compresser pulley.

Your soumd a whole lot like line as the seal was one & half of the ball bearings were gone. I changed the pulley....as it has the bearing already in it, I did not have to change the coil, hardest part was getting snap ring ( retainer ) off. I will say it helped to have had used a friend s lift as there is not alot of room to work with.
