Repairing Bad A/C Compressor

[dickie]

by Wa-Chiss

Overview:

O.K., I was experiencing some bad leaking problems in my A/C. We tried the stop leak system but it didn't work. I was changing my oil one day and while I was underneath the car I notices the sway-bar was soaking wet right under the compressor. So, I decided it was time for an overhaul or maybe even an R&R. I decided to take some pics and do a step by step on how to overhaul a compressor. I have the Nihon (yes spelling is correct) type: NVR 140S but others should be similar.

Difficulty: ****

Time: 3-5 hours

Cost: varies

Tools:

- socket wrenches and ratchet- flathead screwdriver

Materials:

- replacement A/C parts

Procedure:







































Now all thats left to do is replace all the rubber o-rings and seals. reassemble and enjoy a cold A/C.
