    gone to pot, actually fell off the shaft. I have another complete compressor w/clutch. Am I better off swapping the whole thing, or switch clutch’s? A/C worked fine until clutch fell off.
    I don’t have the equipment to evacuate the system, can I quickly swap units, then get oil and recharge cans?

    Is there a special tool to hold the clutch will I unscrew the center bolt? Compressor runs clockwise, does the bolt unscrew lefty loosy, righty tighty?
