Volvo Repair: volvo 850 ac compressor, oil leaks, volvo 850


Question
Hi,  I have very good mechanical skills and there are 150,000 miles on this 1993 Volvo 850.  I need to replace the airconditioning compressor.  I've been looking on the web, but so far have had no luck as to the procedure.  My question is what is the correct detailed procedure for removing and installing the AC compressor?  Thank you for your time.   Al

Answer
Hi Al,
     I assume that the compressor has problems..
    Just back into doing the job...carefully.Be sure all lines are drained..use rags to catch oil leaks...use proper tools when doing this kind of work...leaving no scars...

             Good luck,
