your system probably needs refrigerant gas
The compressor needs to be changed. There is no more pressure in it. It keeps working but only hot air is comes out.
The clutch gap,loss of refrigerant and electrical switches could be the problem. air compressors operate as long as the pressure of the R-134a is high enough otherwise damage to the compessor can be done. If the AC system is charged turn it on and watch to see if the clutch engages, if it comes on the goes off then on, off then on, there is aleak in one of lines; letting the pressure drop below opperational allowance.
There is no adjustment. If you can depress the pedal and it doesn't engage or engages at the bottom of the travel, it's most likely due to low hydraulic clutch fluid, a leaking slave or master clutch cylinder, or all 3. Look first for low fluid in the clutch reservoir. If it's full, pull back the protective dust boot on the slave cylinder (On the transmission) and look for fluid leaks. If it's dry, you probably have a problem with the master cylinder. They quite often leak back inside the car where the clutch rod from the petal goes through the firewall into the master cylinder. If the clutch petal is at the top of it's travel, you're most likely due for a clutch replacement. The clutch on the Neon comes as a package deal with the clutch, pressure plate, and flywheel in one riveted-together unit. It's one of Chrysler's expensive but unnessary ideas on how to build a clutch. - go figure!
it may be, because when the ac comes on , the ac compresor clutch engages and takes power away from the engine. is your ignition timing properly adjusted?
Yes he is. He is the captain and a magnificent leader and comes through in the clutch (2001 World Series)
Ok, the adjustment rod that connects to your clutch fork, it has threads ,, all you do is take out the pin on the rod and push on the clutch fork till the rod comes out, i think on mine i had to tighten it to where the nut was closer to the clutch fork, if you adjust it too much it will be hard to put in because of the pressure plate firmness, i tightend mine to where its hard to put it back in , this got me to engage like in the middle of releasing the pedal, ,,,,that's how you do it ,, , and that's how i did it, good luck
hahaha lmao Im going through the same problem
I was driving and all of the sudden I had to push the clutch to the floor with no resisitance and it was difficult to engage the gears. What happened?
Often this is the connection to the clutch on the compressor.
Remove the shroud, un-bolt the fan&clutch. It comes off as 1 unit.
How sure are you that it's full of freon? When all the freon leaks out of my AC, the clutch won't engage. But then that makes it difficult to fill. I hook up a new can of R-134 to the low pressure side, then take out the fusible link for the ac and put a small jumper wire on the contacts to engage the clutch (never needlenose pliers- you'll fry your battery and alternator that way). When the clutch engages, it pulls in the freon (kit has hose that opens and seals can - follow the instructions that comes with kit) - Can faces down, shake the can until it feels ice cold with frost, and empty. Put in about 3 cans - Turn on ac/fan - feel the AC as you fill it up. It should become ice cold. If you've already done this and are having this problem, then it might be the freon pressure sensor (if there is one) - or the fusible link (doesn't work without it) if it's not the pump itself. Put the small jumper wire first just to make sure the clutch engages. My car is 20 years old and the clutch works, so that wouldn't be my first guess. Good luck
not unless the transmission already comes with a clutch for high performance hugh horsepower builds it would be better to upgrade the clutch anyway
