Hello everyone,
i got a freon recharge the other day and it has been diagnosed that
my compressor has a bad seal, when the compressor "clutch" engaged for the
brief while that it did, i could see bubbling brown lubricant near the
pully-side of the compressor. Also a valve seems to be bad, but i can fix
that..
My question is, is there anyway that i could take the compressor out,
unscrew a few screws and slap a new seal in there, and if i could not
obtain/afford a new seal, maybe i could get a sheet of the seal material,
and use the old one as a template. I have a bentley, are there any special
manuals out there that i could need? Any advice would be greatly
appreciated (or warmly received, as its pretty hot in the van as it is :) )
