The ac clutch on my '96 doesn't engage by itself all the time. When I turn on the a/c and it doesn't engage I can always pop it with my knuckle while its running and it will catch every time. The car has 201,000 miles on it, I assumed that my clutch was just so worn that the gap was getting too wide for the electromagnet inside to pull it in sometimes.
I have a new clutch coming in the morning...
Just wanted to get a sanity check that I am thinking right here and that the clutch is the culprit before I spend my money. ($192.00 at O-Reilly's)
Also, I've read that a/c clutches use shims in some cases. Is it possible that I could just shim it and get a few more miles out of it?
thanks
