Put in a new well rebuilt (dad didn't want to spend $$$ on new) A/C compressor after the stock one sounded like a jack hammer :P

Out comes the old.

Can you tell which one is new? It's a trick question :P

Ewww. Don't worry, I flushed the lines and added oil.

Vacuumed for 30 min and added 28oz of 134a.

Yay! and the S10 is cool again and quiet. Also put a new fan belt on. Drives better too. The engine would bog down with the A/C on for the past few years.

Took about 6 hours or so. Took my time and the hardest part was removing the air intake. Its as wide as the front of the truck and one part goes under the radiator hose.

Nice work man. Did you get alot of black crud out when flushing it?

Nope. pretty clean other than the orifice tube. The compressor leaked oil at the bottom and probably where the refrigerant went out.
