With 10P15F A/C Compressor

A/C CLUTCH AIR GAP

A/C Clutch Air Gap Check:






1. Check the air gap between the A/C clutch and the A/C Compressor clutch pulley mating surface in three locations equally spaced around the A/C clutch pulley. Record the air gap measurements.
2. Rotate the A/C clutch pulley one-half turn (180 degrees) and again check the air gap in three equally spaced locations. Record the air gap measurements.
3. The smallest air gap measurement must be within 0.53-0.91 mm (0.021-0.036 inch). Add, remove, or replace shims between the A/C clutch and compressor shaft end as necessary until the smallest air gap is within 0.53-0.91 mm (0.021-0.036 inch).
