Hello all. this is my first post here. My air conditioning blows hot. The fuse is alright, I cannot see any leaks in the line, but the a/c compressor is not spinning when a/c is turned on. What do I need to replace in order to make this happen? I don't believe a simple recharge will fix this unless the compress automatically stops spinning when it runs out of freon. Will new clutch bearings fix this? Or do I need a new compressor? It's an 88 Chevy S-10 with the 2.8. Bought it for 800 bucks, not wanting to put much into it. Let me know guys. thanks so much.

 

well if its an 88 and it doesnt spin its probably a gonner.

 

otta find out if she's full of freon ....gotta start there

 

if you have to get a new one DO NOT get one from a junkyard... the a/c's in those things are p.o.s, and i got four bad ones in a row off wrecked trucks before i finally bit the bullet and bought a new one on my old s-10
