z
A one- piece lip- type seal (installed from the front of the A/C compressor) is used to seal it at the
shaft opening in the assembly.
z Five double- acting pistons operate within the cylinder assembly. The pistons are actuated by a
swashplate that converts the rotating action of the shaft to a reciprocating force.
z Reed- type discharge valves are located between the cylinder assembly and the head at each
end of the A/C compressor.
z The A/C compressor uses PAG oil, or equivalent. This oil contains special additives required for
the A/C compressor.
z The A/C compressor oil from vehicles equipped with an FS- 10 A/C compressor may have some
dark colored streaking while maintaining a normal oil viscosity. This is normal for the A/C
compressor and is caused by break- in wear of the piston rings.
The magnetic A/C clutch has the following characteristics: zIt drives the compressor shaft.
z When the battery positive voltage (B+) is applied to the A/C clutch field coil, the clutch plate and
hub assembly is drawn toward the A/C clutch pulley.
z The magnetic force locks the clutch plate and hub assembly and the A/C clutch pulley together
as one unit, causing the compressor shaft to rotate.
z When (B+) is removed from the A/C clutch field coil, springs in the clutch plate and hub
assembly move the clutch plate away from the A/C clutch pulley. A/C Compressor Pressure Relief Valve Item Part Number Description
