Have 1999 Dodge Ram 5.2. AC cuts out at high engine rpm. Compressor replaced. What could this be?

Possibly a faulty high pressure switch. It would help to know exactly what it's doing, and also to measure the system pressures, as there could be a blockage in the system which is causing the pressure to read excessively.


Why are number of compressor stages more than turbine stages in a jet-engine?

Flow does not like the pressure gradient it sees going into the compressor and is therefore, more likely to separate (causing flow separation). Therefore, a more subtle increase in pressure through each stage is needed in the compressor. The turbine does not see this problem.

What is tension and compression?

Tension and compression takes place when an object has a force on another object. The tension is when the force is causing a pulling effect on part of the object. The compression is when the force is causing a contracting effect on part of the object.


Your AC keeps blowing fuses thus disabling the entire ac unit what could be causing the power surge and how can you fix it?

the a/c clutch is loose and is shorting out. the compressor and clutch must be replaced


What is causing your 1992 Volvo 240 to run leanrich and you replaced the mass air flow sensor?

O2 sensor/leaky injecters/fuel pressure regulator.


Why would a 78 Mercedes 280CE run fine when the AC's off but sounds like its putting pressure on the engine when it is on?

Hey Cort==The a/c compressor draws about 10 horsepower. At idle your engine is developing about 30 hp so you are taking about 1/3 of it for the compressor. You may have switch problems on the compressor causing it not to work in some positions. GoodluckJoe


What would be the part of ac compressor causing the car to whine at high speed when compress kick in?

That has to do with the a/c copmressor needing to be replaced. The odds are the compressor has probably seized. Because it is still connected to the belts driven off the engine ect, the sound you hear is the compressor being forced to turn. It's not actually working. Drive around with the a/c off until you get a new one.


Why would a 1999 Mercury Tracer AC blow cool air for about a minute and then stop cooling?

First guess would be low on refrigerant, causing the compressor to quit running after a short period. Could also be a buildup of pressure in the system, causing the system to shut down. Also possible that the fan clutch or some assembly on the compressor only works for a short period. . .


What is a compression check?

A compression check is done to verify your piston rings have not failed causing blow by, can lead to, among other things, burning oil (bad cases cause bluish smoke to come out of the tailpipe). It is done by attaching a pressure gauge to your engine through the spark plug hole.


If your car started stalling shortly after the AC stopped working and is still stalling after the throttle body was cleaned and ignition coil replaced could the AC problem have something to do with it?

The ac could be causing the problem. Turn the ac off, and watch the compressor clutch to see if it is not engaged. If it is then the compressor or clutch could be bogging the engine down.
