Ford WSM:
Removal
1)Remove the drive belt. .
2)On the 5.0L engine, remove the battery and the battery tray.
3)Remove the A/C manifold and tube retaining bolt and remove the A/C manifold and tube (19D734) . Cap the refrigerant lines and compressor manifolds to prevent the entrance of dirt and moisture.
4)Disconnect the A/C clutch wires at the field coil connector.
5)Remove compressor retaining bolts.
6)Remove the FS-10 A/C compressor from the vehicle.
Install
1)A new service replacement FS-10 A/C compressor contains 295.7ml (10 oz) of the specified refrigerant oil. Prior to installing the replacement A/C compressor , drain four fluid ounces of refrigerant oil from the A/C compressor . This will maintain the total system oil charge within the specified limits.
2)Reverse Removal procedure(s). Tighten compressor retaining bolts to 20-30 Nm (14.8-22.1 lb-ft).
3)Using new O-ring seals lubricated with clean refrigerant oil, connect the A/C manifold and tube to the A/C compressor . Tighten each fitting to 17-23 Nm (12.5-17.0 lb-ft).
4)Connect the A/C clutch wires to the A/C compressor clutch field coil connector.
5)Install the drive belt .
