Appreciate your effort in providing straight forward, no-nonsense, educational video like this. Looking forward for more.

Thanks for the help. I've replaced the compressors on two of my vehicles but I know now I'll have to pull them both & do this prep work. You probably saved me a bunch of money.

Thank you for a valuable video. I’m replacing a compressor this week and was worried about things. You video answered many questions and I can proceed with more confidence.

Best video to date. It seems when people already know what they’re doing they skip a lot of information but you filled in all the gaps for me and I’m sure saved me alot of $$ in mistakes. Thank you!

Absolutelly FANTASTIC demonstration. Thanks for making this video and sharing your knowledge.

As soon as I seen the part about getting all the oil out I set mine up immediately thanks

Good evening family and thank you very much for the valuable information and for your time. 👍🏼

Thank you buddy, I couldn't find anyone else talking about the oil side of the ac

Thank you for the video. My ac went out in my f250. This is very smart in what you had shown me. Thank you

i think im ready for replace the ac compressor in my 97 grand prix thanks for all this tips i don.t even know about how to add the oil on the right way now thanks to you i learn something eals very good video suscribed and like

Good information and technique. Thanks for the video.

i,m about to replace my compressor,good valuable video sir thanks..

It is very good and detailed film on changing oil in the compressor, so many tips, thank you very much. If I need to replace the oil fm the compressor and not sure what exactly oil is there, can I flush it out? Is it possible? With the special flush liquid, like what we use to flush the evaporator e. g. The car AC (it is 2001 Saturn SL2) works on PAG oil (that is what Shop Manual says, they don't specify which PAG of 3 types). PAG oil comes in 3 types 46, 100, 150. As far as I understand you can use any, but you can't mix them. The car was in the dealer shop like 10 years ago, and they replaced the compressor 3 times, but shortly after AC stopped working anyway. I think that is bcs they didn't replaced the Condenser, I've read that the clogged Condenser can cause the Compressor to fail. I'm replacing everything besides the Evaporator (which I will flush of course) I think. Or if so little oil is left after proper draining it doesn't matter what PAG was there? Thank you again.

Very good video, thanks for your help.

Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate it.

To save time trying to completely drain the new comp's oil (as long as it has the correct type in it), just drain the bulk of it out and turn the clutch until very little comes out, then do the exact same thing with the old compressor except measure how much comes out. That will be the amount you need to put back into the new compressor. I recommend a Haynes manual, it will tell you how much to put into the system for each ac component that you're replacing.

When I heard the beep I looked around thinking it was in my house lmao

Conflicting instructions ! 1 video says pad 46 oil in the low side only . You say 1/2-1/2 , Which is it ? Are all compressors the sam procedure ?

So I have a new compressor..drained like you said... so 3 oz....BUT... I ALSO REPLACED THE accumulator (charts says est 3 oz ) and receiver dryer (chart says for a dual evap it's1 oz ) and I some leaked out of the hoses when I broke them apart (3 oz as a "major leak) so that's 10 oz... they gave me 8 oz in the compressor box. But it came with an accumulator. Have I forgotten anything? I feel like I have. 2006 expedition dual evap of course front and back. Total supposed to be 14 oz.

great video, thanks

What about residual oil still in the system? Like in the condenser coil? Just wondering. I need to service my truck also.

Okay Did this, seals replaced... now.. did you take it to a dealer to charge? Vac it down? U got any video on recharging with 134 a or did you take it to a dealer for that?

great vid thanks!!

On my 3.7 L Ford Flex the old OEM compressor didn’t have any oil in it when removed. Salvage yard replacement was also empty. I sucked Ford pag oil in through the high side but I don’t know why the original compressor had no oil.

After have clutch side down do you turn compressor with spanner wrench , plugs in?

Your great man thankkk youuu

Ok good video! Question: once you install the compressor, you said to start up the engine and turn on the compressor intermittently. I assume that this is so that the compressor will engage, and further lubricate the pulley end. But how will this happen since you havnt added freon, the clutch wont engage right?

@mrau92me

Turning the ac off and on is after everything is charged up. It's got nothing to do with helping lubricate, only breaking in the clutch material, helping be sure it doesn't glaze over

Thanks for the tip. I have instructions to only put half the required oil into the compressor and the rest 'throughout the system'. is this an unusual process for installation maybe specific to my system as you didn't mention you did this. thxs

My serpentine belt flops right before going around the ac compressor pulley, even with a new belt and tensioner, as though the ac compressor is resisting getting turned by the belt. Would it be due to oil level of ac compressor?

Can I as you question what happened oil over in compesion.?

I filled mine with oil only through the suction port. Did I make a mistake and have to do it again? I haven’t yet run the compressor..

Cool vid thanks. I got a 2002 grand marquis. Bought used and the a/c didn't work. Then the fan stopped working in warmer weather, but works in cold weather. Figure with the a/c not working a sensor is keeping blower from kickin on. Started watchin vids. Finally started giving it a good look see. Looks like my condenser was smashed in.

This breaks in the clutch friction material by doing this

How to go about the compressor, which has a low pressure port on the bottom of its cylinder, on the side opposite to the clutch side? So the hole is located on the top how you keep it @6:07. The High port is in the same position like in the compressor shown in this film. The hole for Low P port doesn't have any oil around. Should I plugged it in before install? I removed that compressor and now need to clean properly and fill in w/new PAG 100, but in doubts about the procedure, since the shape is different fm/the one shown here. Thank you for your film again.

What if I don't have the evac system to empty the old pump before removing it from the truck. Mine is a 95 F350 CrewCab Dullay with the 7.3 powerstroke. The ac compressor is on top and easy to get to.

You can install an access valve on both the low and high-pressure ends of the system. Then you depress the access valve on the high-pressure side while letting pressure on the low-side drop to the lowest point possible.

I think this is what I did wrong. I replaced my entire AC system on my Ford Escape, but I think I may have put too much oil. I'm ripping the entire system out and doing it again to make sure there's no debris in there. Everything will be brand new. Hopefully this goes well.

Hello How much i have to add oil for compressor AC ford edge 2009?

Research your system capacity for the PAG oil.. replace with what your system recommends. Drain and replace with pag. Go to a local shop to evacuate the refrigerant then after your repairs get vacuumed for moisture and hold vacuum for 30 mins at least. Then charged. Your Tip! Of new compressor shipping oil leave upturned definitely 👍🏼edit to say some compressor need total amount and good to go, others distribute otherwise hydro lock and boom.

There's a few reasons why the compressor may not be engaging. You could have a poor ground wire. You could also have a bad clutch coil wire have you checked the clutch coil wire to make sure it is secure and good? I know this sounds silly as well but did you check the AC compressor fuse? If all of that checks out then you either have a low pressure problem or a bad clutch coil.

The most common reason the ac clutch fails is usually due to an open wire. Is there any corrosion on the wires? Any brittle wires not making good contact? Could be a bad clutch plate also. They do overheat and fail. But check your wiring and fuses also. That would be a good place to start.

@@youtubestar all fuses and relays are good. I’ll do a little more wire tracing and double check all that. The clutch does free spin by hand so it’s not seized up. I noticed about a month ago when I was underneath the car working on other stuff on the car that there was oil under the compressor like it may be leaking from somewhere. It’s a remanufactured compressor that I replaced last august as well as every other component on my AC system is brand new and replaced last august. After replacing everything I went to a shop and had them professionally Evac and recharge the system and it blew cold until just this past Friday.

Compressor comes in two halves - you’ll see the seam in the middle. U may have torqued the compressor unevenly or too tightly causing compressor to ‘twist’ if fluid is leaking in the middle - that is probably the case. Check the torque spec. Of the compressor bolts to engine

I use an all in one recycle, vacuum recharge machine at my shop. On average, about 1oz of oil is suctioned from the system, and the machine can detect that and automatically add an oz of oil back with the recharge. So Id say in most cases, you are fine adding up to 1 oz of oil after a vacuum and recharge if not using a fancy machine that does it for you

My old compressor had no oil inside... It was completely empty and stuck... I got a new Denso to install and I don't know how much oil should be kept inside... The new unit says "factory filled with oil"... I guess I shouldn't take any oil out of the new unit... Am I right?

If you want to leave it alone and trust them well, you can do that as well.
