Do I have to purge the system to change the AC Compressor clutch assembly? I have no idea what is on the inside of that thing or how the clutch assembly comes apart. Mine is sounding like Blower whine, and I need to replace the bearings or the whole clutch assembly before it locks up or something. When the compressor is idle I hear loud whine/screetch... until the compressor kicks on then the noise stops, but starts whining as soon as the compressor shuts off again.
