Instructions to Replace A/C Air Compressor in 97 TJ..
Hello,
does anyone have a link to instructions for the replacement of a new
AIR Compressor / Clutch in my 97 TJ. My A/C clutch went out and I
bought a replacment (which was cheaper as a combo to buy the clutch
and the compressor) and I would like to put them on myself.
By looking at the existing one it looks very simple. I have the
necessary gauges to install the unit. I have them for when I worked on
the A/C in one of my JD tractor's.
Any help would be appreciated!!
TIA!

Re: Instructions to Replace A/C Air Compressor in 97 TJ..
If you think this might be a rare or one time thing I would recommend
www.alldatadiy.com. I think it costs $25 for a year subscription for one
vehicle. Your subscription will have the step-by-step procedures for
everything in the mechanics manual. If you think you will be doing more of
this kind of work on the jeep, then i would just buy the real-deal service
manual. I think they sell for less than $100. If you search you might also
find an illegeal copy on cd at places like ebay.

Re: Instructions to Replace A/C Air Compressor in 97 TJ..
If it's just the clutch that needs to be replaced, then just
replace it. Otherwise you're looking at the need to vacuum it, and a
skill level I really don't think you want to take the time to learn,
judging by the way you put the question. It's just the bolt at the end
and a snap ring, about a minute to change:

Re: Instructions to Replace A/C Air Compressor in 97 TJ..
Bills right unless you inored it too long and the insides were torn up also.
The same brand of compressor is used on VW Eurovans, I have one, and this
subjects comes up too often. If you drove it and used the AC with a bad
clutch the "innards" were forced to run out of round, off center if you
will, and it goes out quickly.

Re: Instructions to Replace A/C Air Compressor in 97 TJ..
Thanks.. I thought that i woult just try the clutch first.. some one
told me that my compressor was probably bad if the clutch was.. but I
dont think I even ran it a day before I relaized the clutch was bad so
maybe I will get lucky .. and if the compressor is bad i can always
have someone put it on.
Do you have anymore of those helpful diagrams of the serpentine blet
install.. I read in here a while back that there is a trick to it. I
had a heck of a time getting one on last time.
Thanks so much fo you're help!

Re: Instructions to Replace A/C Air Compressor in 97 TJ..
Most cars have a diagram of the belt someplace under the hood. I
find it falls into place if I start by holding the back of the belt
against the water pump pulley: http://www.----------.com/serpenti.jpg
