Compressor Clutch: Service Precautions

CAUTION:
- Do not pry between the clutch plate unit and the pulley to remove the clutch plate from the compressor shaft as this may damage the clutch plate.
- If the snap ring is not fully seated in the groove It will vibrate out, resulting in a clutch failure and severe damage to the compressor front cover.
