Lee, thanks for the parts. I installed everything and charged it up. So far it's working. Compressor is making some noise when the A/C is off. Don't know if it's just from sitting or if there is something I can do. Sounds like when it's free spinning, it rubs a little. Hopefully it will clear itself up. Thanks again for helping me with the parts.

Glad you got back and got stuff installed and working.

Hopefully the noise will clear up.

You are welcome! It was nice to meet you, even though it was briefly.

I bet the noise is just the a/c belt tensioner. lube it up

The noise was actually the clutch on the compressor not releasing all the way. The compressor gave out on me and puked all the coolant back out. Both the idler pulley and tensioner pulley were making noise too, but I put one new one on and one off the tensioner that was included with the compressor Lee gave me. I put my original compressor back in last night and charged it back up. All is quiet now and it's working great.

Sorry that one didn't work out for you.

Don't be sorry. I used the line and a pulley. Everything is working now and is quiet. That was my goal. The parts are much appreciated.
