How To Replace A/C Clutch Pulley And Coil

[@artisticmuses]

Hey thank you so much. I have a disabled husband who is no longer able to do things like this. You and the other video helped me a lot. It was the relay after all. 2012 Maxima S.

People should be thankful you're willing to take the time to show/teach them how to do stuff like this not make fun of your arms. People dont amaze me anymore. Great video very helpful and much appreciated sir.

[@m0bilemechanix]

Thank you

Gotta say this was THEE most helpful video I’ve seen for tearin out the ac clutch... I’ve been flipping out for about a week trying to figure out how to swap that (I didn’t wanna blow the cash on the whole compressor, REALLY didn’t wanna have to buy it after I ordered the clutch) thanks guys you saved my @ss

[@centauri8820]

Great video. I had to go back and re-do the air-gap in between the clutch plates. About 0.02" worked great.

[@jacquelinegonzalez6502]

Thank you very much for this video! Truthfully one of the most useful videos out there!

[@timsharpe3498]

I remember when GM could afford little things like snap rings to hold a clutch coil in place.

[@andrewarmstrong7310]

Had my fingers crossed for you. Those 1995 to 2002 GM Sanden made A/C Compressors are the worst there is. If you can find your friend a Denso compressor it is a 1,000 times better. I used to fill a 55-gallon drum up with those old Sanden compressors after the rebuilder stopped taking them, then sold them for scrap. To me that says a lot when a rebuilder refuses to pick them up anymore.

Nice work fellas. Is it still in service? The only ones I've encountered on GM trucks and suvs are Delphi Harrison. This one looks to be a four seasons reman unit. I've had one on my '97 K1500 for almost eight years and is still blowing 40 degree air out the vents and it has sounded just like this one since the day I put it on!

[@rmendez011]

God damn, I'm doing this to my 2000 Chevy Astro and its a bitch in a half to remove and install these 3 parts, and you did that easily.

[@bitcoinlife9227]

Did i miss any not a mechani just a DYI dad 2005 honda civic lx i know you fixibg truck your video show step by step appreciate your opinion not advice thank you

[@jobquijada9496]

Good explanation sir buy an OTC Tools 4535 A / C Clutch Hub Remover / Installer Set and I did not want to follow any instructions just enter in your video and it is excellent very good explanation and best of all in the field is the best thank you and good luck.

[@zbsbadanilmuhikmah1944]

tq job giving the name OTC Tools 4535 A / C Clutch Hub Remover .hi hi hi

[@Leejon57]

You have a great voice!

[@m0bilemechanix]

Thanks

[@jerryrogers5233]

Good job, very useful explanation, use of regular tools, explanation of pitfalls. I do appreciate the hairy arms (as are mine), the colorful language (as I may use), and all the rest excluding the occasional marauding cat :-) . Also good use of gauges and explanation of high side vs low side pressures. The snowflakes who are offended by any of this video probably need to stay in front of a keyboard and out of the garage.

[@Larry342516]

I replaced all new parts inside my AC, and now having trouble wiring it back up. Old clutch had only two wires. A black and a white wire. New one has two black wires and one Red wire. Do all the Black wires go together, and the Red wire does it go to the white wire? Thanks for any help.

[@craigcervino2447]

Man i had hope that i could do this repair with out removing the whole compressor its tough outside in driveway

[@LeeQuesada-CoTGaming]

Bro. Your arms may be hairy but at least you don't have a year round fur coat like I do... I'm like a teen wolf if i let my neckbeard and everything grow out. lol... Hairline grows into my back hair, chest hair, and shoulder hair. You have it easy.

[@brt-jn7kg]

If that's a picture of you and that little inset brother you've got a pretty impressive man mane! At least yours is still dark unfortunately I am now a silverback and a silver front silver sides pretty much sucks I used to have a beautiful flowing red beard but four kids and being married to the same woman more than well what do you like this the cowboys were a conquering football team about the time I got married and we all know that was a hell of a long time ago.

[@Chen-nc8fr]

Great video! Quick question, do you need that nut at 14:32? My old clutch did not come with one. I’ve installed a new clutch and everything seems pretty solid so far

[@m0bilemechanix]

If you have threads for one and it looks like there should be one I would try to find one from a hardware store or something.

[@Chen-nc8fr]

@@m0bilemechanix thank you

[@wil1975wm]

thanks for the video it was very helpful,

[@Dave-jc6ky]

Could I ask what size that socket was and was it an impact or regular socket?

[@m0bilemechanix]

I have no idea sorry. Just went through them until I found ones that worked

[@hp2179]

If I got a leak on the compressor will a clutch fix the problem on the same make and model

[@m0bilemechanix]

Will not fix a compressor leak unfortunately

[@johnriley215]

Thank you

[@WooferCooker]

Do you have to get the key out to remove the clutch?

[@m0bilemechanix]

No

[@b_wilk98]

My compressor is just as noisy. Is his compressor still working even with the noise?

[@m0bilemechanix]

He never said he had any problems but I don't know how long he kept the blazer. Usually when you hear that sorta noise it's not going to last forever

[@Tootallfordoorways]

What is the black vertical box behind the compressor on the passenger side of the engine?

[@GrandPrix46]

The evaporator, the receiver drier connects right to it at the top, on the bottom line is where the orifice tube is.

[@MrSamBowers]

You could give information on that OEM clutch remover kit you're using.

[@m0bilemechanix]

I don't remember any part numbers but just tell the auto parts store you need an ac clutch kit and they will rent one to you or you can keep it.

[@darrelldixon8056]

Anyone notice the curious cat?

[@brt-jn7kg]

Thanks for the video brother. PS I also too have gorilla arms and it is a fucked up thing for someone to say.lol

[@redpena2582]

Those compressors are noisy in general

[@mach275]

I couldn’t focus in your video because of your cigarette... jk

[@discreto130]

El uso de la palanca en vez de un extractor de poleas se ve bastante mal que lo hagas en un video eso se hace cuando no se tiene la herramienta y cuando no se tiene la herramienta no veo para que hagas un video además se ve bastante mal de tu parte estar fumando cuando estás manejando un vehículo que trabaja con gasolina

[@m0bilemechanix]

I don't know what you said bro

@@m0bilemechanix 1 out 6 in U.S.A. speak Spanish Spanish is #2 language only after Chinese Mandarin Spanish is the fast growing language all over the world And U.S.A. is the country where is growing fastest. In 20 to 40 years Spanish must be official language at U.S.A. Thinking about it. Is time to learn Spanish.
