new 09/22/2004


How do you remove the ac clutch, I need to set the gap. I don't see any bolts or
nuts.

Remove the A/C Compressor from the engine block by removing 3 long screws with 13mm heads, the Compressor will drop so be ready to support it somehow. After removing the Compressor, get a 15mm socket on the nut in the center of the Compressor pulley and remove the nut. The pulley will come apart now. Inside the pulley on the shaft is a tiny spacer - take it out and put everything back together.
You will find this job easiest if you remove the passenger's front tire and plastic wheel well liner to get at the side of the motor.
