Clutch Assembly: Installation

  1. Install clutch coil so pin in back of coil aligns with hole in front compressor housing. Ensure wiring harness is routed so wires are not pinched. Connect clutch coil and diode lead. Install NEW snap ring with bevel side facing outward. Ensure snap ring is properly seated in groove.
  2. Install rotor and pulley assembly. Install snap ring and ensure it is properly seated in groove. If a new clutch assembly is being installed, use a shim stack that is 0.027" (0.7 mm) thick. Align clutch plate and compressor shaft mating splines, and install clutch plate.
  3. Install dial indicator at front of clutch plate to measure clutch plate and pulley air gap. Press clutch plate tight against shims and measure air gap. Air gap should be 0.014-0.026" (0.35-0.65 mm). Add or remove shims to obtain correct air gap. Install compressor shaft nut and tighten to 13 ft. lbs. (18 N.m). Because shims may compress, ensure air gap is within specification.
  4. Install compressor and tighten mounting bolts to 30 ft. lbs. (41 N.m). After completing compressor clutch installation, start engine. Set A/C-heater control to recirculated air mode and high blower motor speed. Set engine speed to 1500-2000 RPM. Cycle compressor on for 5 seconds and off for 5 seconds, about 20 times to burnish or break-in clutch friction surfaces.
