Installation









AIR CONDITIONING: COMPRESSOR AND PULLEY (for 2GR-FSE 2WD): INSTALLATION

AIR CONDITIONING: COMPRESSOR AND PULLEY

1. ADJUST COMPRESSOR OIL
(a) When replacing the compressor with a new one, after gradually discharging the refrigerant gas from the service valve, drain the following volume of oil from the new compressor before installation.
Standard:
(Oil capacity inside a new compressor: 130 + 15 cc (4.6 + 0.51 fl.oz.)) - (Remaining oil amount in the removed compressor) = (Oil amount to be removed from the new compressor when replacing.
NOTICE:
- When checking the compressor oil level, observe the precautions in the cooler removal/installation.
- If a new compressor is installed without removing some oil remaining in the pipes of the vehicle, the oil amount becomes excessive. This prevents heat exchange in the refrigerant cycle and causes refrigerant failure.
- If the volume of oil remaining in the removed compressor and magnetic clutch is too small, check for oil leakage.
- Be sure to use ND-OIL 8 for compressor oil.

2. INSTALL COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY






(a) Using an E8 "torx" socket, install the compressor with the stud bolt.
Torque: 10 Nm (102 kgf-cm, 7 ft-lbf)






(b) Install the compressor with the 3 bolts and nut.
Torque: 24.5 Nm (250 kgf-cm, 18 ft-lbf)
NOTICE:
Tighten the bolts in the order shown in the illustration to install the compressor.

3. INSTALL DISCHARGE HOSE SUB-ASSEMBLY






(a) Remove the attached vinyl tape from the discharge hose.
(b) Apply sufficient compressor oil (ND-OIL 8) to a new O-ring and the fitting surface of the compressor.
Compressor oil:
ND-OIL 8 or equivalent
(c) Install the O-ring on the discharge hose.
(d) Install the discharge hose on the compressor with the bolt.
Torque: 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm, 7 in-lbf)
4. INSTALL NO. 1 COOLER REFRIGERANT SUCTION HOSE






(a) Remove the attached vinyl tape from the suction hose.
