  Q: How to remove the air conditioning compressor on Ford Excursion?

  A: To remove the air conditioning compressor, discharge the system and remove the drivebelt. For gasoline models, raise the vehicle, remove the right front wheel, release the clips on the lower fan shroud, and remove the fender splash shield if necessary. Disconnect the compressor lines, transmission fluid cooler lines (for automatic transmission), and electrical connectors. Remove the compressor mounting bolts and take out the compressor. For 7.3L diesel engines, disconnect the electrical connector and compressor lines, remove the old O-rings, and remove the compressor. For 6.0L and 6.4L engines, remove the transmission cooler, inner splash shield, disconnect the manifold and wiring, remove the compressor mounting bolts, and remove the compressor. If installing a new compressor, follow manufacturer's directions and transfer the clutch if needed. Replace manifold O-rings and lubricate with refrigerant oil. Installation is the reverse. Replace the orifice tube and have the system serviced by a professional.
