AC Compressor removal - HOW ? -

Remove this ad
Okay, okay, okay..,

For those of you with experience. I really need your help...

I've got this '95 Seville-STS apart in my garage (thinking, no problem, it's just another Chevy, NOT).

Never in all my years of messin' with mechanics have I seen an engine horned into the engine compartment like the NorthStar. I suppose at the very least I should congratulate someone for the inginuity (and in the same breath, curse them for the same).

I need someone with some experience to help me get this little POS compressor out. Right now, I have the front right corner of the car disassembled, the alternator is out, blah, blah, blah...

I can't for the love of me see how to get the compressor out though. I've got it unbolted from the block and everything, but there's so little frickin' room in there, I can't see to tell what else I might need to disconnect.

Any/all constructive advice would be hugely appreciated.

I can't get past the Avatar to read the instructions!
I'll have to save them for my own records.

Re: AC Compressor removal - HOW ? -

Thanks Guys..,

Man Oh Man, I thought I was going to lose it there for a while. No. 11 man.., that's where I was getting hung up.
These units are packed in there so tight, I mean, you really can't see what your going after, and without diagrams or R & R instructs, it's insane.
I really owe you fellas a GREAT BIG Thank You. I knew if I looked around, posted around long enough, someone would come and help me through it. I really can't thank you all enough...

Take good care guys. Happy motoring, and happy trails...

Dale.
Calgary, AB., Canada.

PS: nice lookin' pup on the lawn there Scotty.
oh yeh, the cars pretty nice too...

Re: AC Compressor removal - HOW ? -

OOPS ! ! !
Sorry about the error there Ken, like EcSTSatic said there, once I get past the avatar I can make sense of it all.
Scotty drives the '96 Deville, and Ken's got the '94 Seville.
Sorry for the mix-up fellas.
Thanks again,
Dale.

Re: AC Compressor removal - HOW ? -

I know what you mean about #11!!!! That is part of the reason i did not reconnect the line on reinstallation. Took me about an hour just to do that. But man when you are done with the job you are so proud of yourself!!!

Glad to know I could help. If you really want to thank me you could always send some money in my paypal account to finance my next Caddy hehehe just kidding
