how to replace a/c compressor on 98 ls1
The bearings went out in my compressor (126k) on my 98 6-speed Z so I found a low mileage used compressor to do a simple swap. Does anyone have any tricks or tips on how to replace the compressor and recharge the system?

I do home AC, but leave the cars to the people who have the right equipment. I'd just slowly relieve the pressure, R&R the compressor, then bring it to a shop to have them vacuum the system and recharge.

I already bought the R134 and pressure gauge. How difficult is it to vacuum and charge the system? I'd rather do it myself if possible.

dog no offense or anything but your car harms the ozone layer every time you start it. the point though they are trying to get at is with just a gauge and relieving the pressure you won't get all the gas out better to take it and get it hooked up by a professional. some things you just need the right equipment for
