clutch plate using puller. Remove external front housing snap ring and
internal bearing snap ring. See Fig. 16.
2) Install puller and pull rotor assembly off. remove 3
screws and clutch coil. Use driver and hammer to drive bearing out
from hub.
Installation
1) Install new bearing; ensure installer contacts outer race
of bearing. Install snap ring and ensure bearing turns freely. Install
clutch coil on compressor.
2) Support compressor on rear mounting ears. Align rotor on
front housing hub. Use adapter and press to install rotor (or drive
into place with soft mallet). After rotor is seated, install front
snap ring.
SANDEN 5-CYL SHAFT SEAL R & I
NOTE: Check compressor refrigerant oil level when replacing seals.
Removal
1) Hold clutch hub stationary and remove shaft nut with thin
wall socket. Use clutch plate puller to remove clutch plate. Tap key
out of slot in crankshaft.
2) Remove seal retainer with seal remover and 3/4" socket
wrench. Use seal seat remover tongs to pull seal seat off compressor
shaft. Insert seal remover into front housing and turn to engage tangs
on seal. Lift seal out. Remove seal "O" ring from front housing, being
careful not to scratch shaft.
Installation
1) Coat "O" ring with refrigerant oil and install into
groove. Load a new seal onto installer, being careful not to touch
carbon sealing surface with fingers. Install shaft protector. Dip seal
in refrigerant oil and install on shaft. Rotate seal clockwise until
seal fits into flats on shaft. Remove seal installer by turning
counterclockwise.
2) Coat seal seat with refrigerant oil and install with
tongs. Reinstall seal seat retainer (with flat side down). Install
shims and shaft key. Rotate shaft several times to help break in seal.
3) Use a press to install clutch plate. Make sure that air
gap is .016-.031" (.41-.79 mm). Hold plate stationary and install
shaft nut.

installation, ensure there is no contact between cover and front
housing.
3) Install clutch shims and clutch plate. Tighten shaft nut
to 12-14 ft. lbs. (17-19 N.m). Using a dial indicator, apply voltage
to clutch coil to check air gap between clutch plate and drive pulley
assembly. Ensure air gap is .016-.032" (.41-.80 mm).
SANDEN 7-CYL SHAFT SEAL R & I
NOTE: Check compressor refrigerant oil level when replacing seals.
Removal
1) Hold clutch hub stationary and remove shaft nut. Remove
clutch plate using Clutch Plate Puller (09977-21110). Tap shaft key
out of slot in compressor shaft. Remove clutch shims.
2) Remove seal retainer felt ring. Remove shaft seal seat
snap ring with snap ring pliers. Insert Seal Seat Remover/Installer
(09977-21400) into front housing and turn to engage tangs on seat.
Lift seal seat out.
3) Insert seal Remover/Installer (09977-21510) into front
housing and turn to engage tangs on seal. carefully lift seal seat out
without scratching compressor shaft.
Installation
1) Install Shaft Seal Guide Sleeve (09977-21700) over
compressor shaft. Dip seal in refrigerant oil and install seal on
sleeve. Using seal remover/installer, rotate seal clockwise until seal
is engaged. Remove seal remover/installer by turning it
counterclockwise.
2) Coat seal seat with refrigerant oil and install seal with
seal seat remover/installer. Remove shaft seal guide sleeve. Install
snap ring. Install seal retainer felt ring using seal seat
remover/installer. Install clutch shims and shaft key.
3) Install clutch plate. Tighten shaft nut to 12-14 ft. lbs.
(17-19 N.m). Using dial indicator, apply voltage to clutch coil to
check air gap between clutch plate and drive pulley assembly. Ensure
air gap is .016-.032" (.41-.80 mm).

system is in operation. This high pressure could rupture can
or fitting at safety can valve, resulting in damage and
personal injury.
CONNECTING LINES & FITTINGS
A new "O" ring should be used in all instances when
connecting lines and fittings (dip "O" ring in clean refrigeration oil
and make certain it is not twisted during installation). Always use
two wrenches to avoid twisting or distorting lines and fittings,
tighten coupling nuts securely.
PLACING SYSTEM IN OPERATION
After component replacement and/or system servicing has been
completed and all connections have been made, proceed as follows:
1) Evacuate the system using a vacuum pump.
2) Charge the system with new R-12 (refrigerant) according t\
o
each individual vehicle as outlined in the
GENERAL COOLING SYSTEM SERVICING article. Also see Refrigerant
Capacity in this Section.
3) Leak test the system, with particular attention to all new
connections and components.
4) Make a performance test of the system. Never assume that a
recharging has automatically corrected a problem.
COMPRESSOR REMOVAL INFORMATION - ISOLATION METHOD
On systems which have compressors equipped with stem-type
service valves (Tecumseh), it is possible to isolate the compressor
for removal.
Isolating
Turn both high and low pressure manual valves to extreme
clockwise (front seat) position. Loosen cap on high pressure manual
valve connection to compressor and allow gas to escape until
compressor is relieved of pressure.
COMPRESSOR REMOVAL INFORMATION - DISCHARGE METHOD
This procedure is to be used on vehicles which have
compressor equipped with Schrader service valves. In these cases, the
compressor cannot be isolated and the system must be discharged, using
approved refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment, prior to compressor
removal.
