[QUOTE="DSG2003Mach1, post: 13357913, member: 16477"] if the compressor is ticking its likely failing internally which means its sending metal shavings through the system. system needs to be evacuated of freon remove the belts (blower then the inner...im sure thats fun with a stock caged pulley) compressor is one electrical connector, 1 bolt for the pressure lines, 3 bolts hold it to the block (its easier if you drop the compressor first then have one person hold it and another unbolt the pressure lines) r/r the orifice tube (if this has metal shavings on it you need to very thoroughly flush the line from the compressor through the condenser and through the line leading to the evaporator. If you leave any debris there is a good chance it makes it back to the compressor and wipes it out and you start all over (this is why I like letting a shop do it, that way theyre on the hook) its always recommended you replace the dryer any time the system is opened (make sure to follow the instructions on measuring the oil out of the old one and putting the same amount of fresh in the new one) if the compressor isnt full of oil out of the box youll need to find out how much oil to add plus a tad more from where you flushed the lines the system needs a good vacuum to get rid of any moisture and you can check for leaks recharge the system [/QUOTE]
