Air Conditioning Compressor

From the 1974 Chevrolet Passenger Car and Light Truck Overhaul Manual

Overhaul of the six-cylinder axial compressor used on all vehicles, whose differences lie only in brackets, pulleys, connectors and capacity. Minor repairs cover the clutch hub and drive plate, pulley and bearing replacement and the coil and housing; major repairs cover the pressure relief valve, superheat switch, shaft seal and the internal mechanism with pistons, reed and valve plates and oil pump gears.
