It's possible, but a bit unlikely.
Yes!
High pressure vapor.
Replace belt self tensioner, if applicable. Adjust belt tension. Replace belt. Have ac pressures checked. AC compressor may be failing.

A malfunctioning AC compressor could be caused by issues such as low refrigerant levels, electrical problems, or a worn-out compressor. To check if the AC compressor fuse is the cause of the issue, you can visually inspect the fuse for any signs of damage or use a multimeter to test for continuity.
Several factors can prevent the clutch from engaging on an auto AC compressor, including low refrigerant levels, which can trigger a safety switch to prevent compressor damage. Electrical issues, such as a blown fuse or faulty relay, can also disrupt power to the clutch. Additionally, a malfunctioning AC control module or a damaged clutch coil may prevent engagement. Finally, if the engine is overheating or the system is experiencing mechanical failures, the clutch may not engage as a protective measure.

You have to go on the compressor! My husband has a 95 and the auto parts manager told him you have to.
The compressor locked up because it was low on oil in the first place and when you recharged it with freon it had no lubricant.
To determine if the AC compressor on a 1994 Suburban is faulty, listen for unusual noises like grinding or squeaking when the AC is running, which could indicate internal damage. Additionally, check for signs of refrigerant leaks around the compressor, such as oily residue. If the AC system blows warm air despite the compressor engaging, it may be a sign of failure. Lastly, inspect the compressor clutch; if it doesn't engage when the AC is turned on, the compressor may be defective.
Assuming you mean the outside of the compressor, no. The gasoline (petrol) may damage the seals. And don't use gasoline to clean the inside of the compressor either.
It shakes because it is overcharged. Needs some pressure released.
