REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
SERVICE POINTS OF REMOVAL
2. REMOVAL OF TENSION PULLEY ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION BOLTS
(1) After loosening nut A (for holding the tension pulley.' loosen bolt B (for adjustment) and reduce the tension of the compressor drive belt to zero.
(2) Remove the tension pulley assembly installation bolts, and then remove the tension pulley assembly together with the compressor drive belt.
11. REMOVAL OF SUCTION HOSE CONNECTION
Plug the disconnected hose and the compressor opening to prevent dust, dirt and other foreign material from entering.
14. REMOVAL OF COMPRESSOR
This work must be done carefully so as not to spill the compressor oil.
INSPECTION
- Checking for heat damage of the tension pulley.
- Check for excessive play or deflection of the tension pulley.
- Check for unusual wear of the tension pulley.
- Check for hardening of the air conditioning belt.
- Check for unusual wear or abrasion of the air conditioning belt.
CONTINUITY CHECK OF THE COMPRESSOR'S MAGNETIC CLUTCH
(1) Disconnect the compressors connector.
(2) Check to be sure that there is continuity between body ground and terminal (1) at the compressor side.
OPERATION CHECK OF THE COMPRESSOR'S MAGNETIC CLUTCH
(1) Disconnect the compressors connector.
(2) Connect terminal � at the compressor side to the positive (+) terminal of the battery, and ground the negative (-) terminal of the battery to the compressor.
(3) The condition of the compressors magnetic clutch can be considered satisfactory if the operation sound (a "click" sound) of the magnetic clutch can be heard when this check is made.
SERVICE POINTS OF INSTALLATION
14. INSTALLATION OF COMPRESSOR
If a new compressor is installed, first adjust the amount of oil according to the procedures described below, and then install the compressor.
(1) Measure the amount (X cm3) of oil within the removed compressor.
(2) Wipe away (from the new compressor) the amount of oil calculated according to the following formula, and then install the new compressor.
New compressor oil amount 150 cm3 (9.1 cu.in.) X cm3 = Y cm3
NOTE Y cm3 indicates the amount of oil in the refrigerant line, the condenser, the cooling unit, etc.
4. INSTALLATION OF COMPRESSOR DRIVE BELT
13. TENSION PULLEY ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION BOLT
(1) Attach the compressor drive belt to the tension pulley assembly as shown in the figure.
(2) Attach the compressor drive belt to the crankshaft pulley and the compressor's pulley, and then install the tension pulley assembly.
NOTE
(1) Hold the tension pulley assembly so that the compressor drive belt does not slip out of place; and while doing so install the tension pulley assembly.
(2) Install the tension pulley assembly installation bolts in the (1) -> (2) sequence.
