A/C Compressor Replacement ?
The A/C compressor is locked up on my 1994 F250 and I need to replace it . How is that hose block on the back set up ? Is that large bolt on the side a cap or a valve and the little bolt on the back the retaining bolt ? I would appreciate any tips on doing this job . - Thansk

...More A/c Questions
Scuuuse me Pete for piggybacking your thread , but I am in a similar position. My 1996 F350 7.3 turbodiesel no longer pumps cold air all of a sudden. The symptoms are ; the clutch will engage for about 5 seconds, disengage for about 20 and then click in again...only to go through the same cycle again and again. Can anybody tell me if that is a relay problem(I wish), a clutch malfunction, or is the compressor itself seizing ? If it is the compressor going bad, how do I replace it without losing the coolant. Any tips ? thanks
