REFRIGERANT OILS
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
NOTE: Use ONLY the specified oil for the A/C system or compressor.
Always check the underhood A/C specification label or A/C
compressor label before adding refrigerant oil to A/C
compressor/system.
NOTE: For compressor applications, see COMPRESSOR APPLICATIONS &
BODY DESIGNATIONS. DO NOT exceed A/C system refrigerant oil
capacity when servicing system. See CAPACITIES.

Contour, Cougar, Escort, Mustang, Mystique, Tracer and Windstar,
drill two 1/2" holes in bottom of old accumulator, and drain. On
all models, add the same amount of oil drained plus 2 ounces of
refrigerant oil to new accumulator.
(2) - Add refrigerant oil following replacement of other system
components such as hoses, fixed orifice tube, A/C clutch cycling
switch, A/C compressor pressure relief valve, system pressure
cut-off switch, or service valve, compressor shaft seal, "O"
ring or hose leaks.
( 3) - If all lines have been replaced.

HARRISON HD6/HT6, HD6/HR-6HE 6-CYL., V5 5-CYL. & V7 7-CYL.
NOTE: Replacement compressor may be shipped with 8-9 ounces of
refrigerant oil. Drain shipping refrigerant oil into a clean
container and retain for use.
1) If possible, operate system for several minutes to
stabilize system. Turn engine off. Discharge A/C system, using
approved refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment. Remove A/C
compressor. Drain and measure refrigerant oil from old compressor
through suction and discharge ports, and drain plug.
2) If no compressor oil leaks exist, and more than one ounce
is drained, add amount drained from old compressor. If less than one
ounce is drained from old compressor, add 2 ounces of refrigerant oil.
3) When replacing other A/C components, add specified amount
of refrigerant oil to component. See HD6/HT6, HD6/HR-6HE, V5 & V7
COMPONENT REFRIGERANT OIL CAPACITIES table. Install compressor drain
plug and compressor. Evacuate and charge system. Perform leak test.
Ensure A/C system is operating properly.
NOTE: Approximately 3 ounces of refrigerant oil, suspended in
refrigerant, will be lost due to a large, abrupt leak. When
replacing a faulty A/C component, add amount of oil specified
for component plus 3 ounces to compensate for oil loss. If
oil cannot easily be added to component, add it to
accumulator.

(0.41-0.79 mm). If air gap is not within specification, adjust shim
thickness as necessary. If air gap is not consistent around clutch
plate, lightly pry up or tap down on clutch plate to make corrections.
To complete installation, reverse removal procedure.
Installation (Dakota, Durango & Ram Pickup)
1) Install clutch coil and clutch coil snap ring. Install
clutch coil wire harness to compressor housing. Align pulley and
bearing assembly on front compressor housing hub.
2) Install Handle (6464) and Driver (6143) into pulley

inner race of bearing. Using hammer, install pulley and bearing
assembly. While tapping on handle, guide pulley and bearing assembly
to prevent binding. Ensure pulley assembly bottoms against compressor
housing. Install external snap ring.
3) Install original shim(s) and compressor shaft key. Use a
hammer and Shaft Protector (6141-2) to install clutch plate on
compressor shaft. Ensure clutch plate bottoms out on clutch shims.
Replace compressor shaft nut and tighten compressor shaft nut to 10
ft. lbs. (14 N.m).
4) Measure air gap between clutch plate and pulley assembly
in several areas. Air gap should be 0.016-0.031" (0.41-0.79 mm). If
air gap is not within specification, adjust shim thickness as
necessary. If air gap is not consistent around clutch plate, lightly
pry up or tap down on clutch plate to make corrections. To complete
installation, reverse removal procedure. Ensure A/C system operates
properly.
5) After completing compressor clutch installation, start
engine. Set A/C-heater control to recirculated air mode and high
blower motor speed. Set engine speed to 1500-2000 RPM. Cycle
compressor on for 5 seconds and off for 5 seconds, about 20 times to
break-in clutch.

shaft. Install puller flange plate on jaws. Install 2 puller bolts
through puller flange plate into jaws and hand tighten. Tighten pulley
center bolt clockwise and remove pulley assembly from compressor.

5) Once compressor shaft nut is tightened, check air gap
between clutch plate and pulley surface in at least 4 places. Readjust
air gap if necessary. Install A/C compressor. Evacuate and charge
system. Perform leak test. Ensure A/C system is operating properly.
6) After completing compressor clutch installation, start
engine. Set A/C-heater control to recirculated air mode and high
blower motor speed. Set engine speed to 1500-2000 RPM. Cycle
compressor on for 5 seconds and off for 5 seconds, about 20 times to
break-in clutch.
SHAFT SEAL
