What else can I help you with?
The air compressor on my 1995 gmc 1500 pickup truck with a 350 engine works fine but has a loud rubbing sound coming from the compressor when the ac is not on.How do you change the air compressor?
If it is working fine, and the noise is only when it is disengaged you should only need to change the clutch on the compressor not the entire compressor. If there is room to pull the clutch off on the truck, then there is no need to evacuate the refrigerant.
If the compressor clutch is not working correctly in your gmc sierra pickup will it make a noise when the compressor is activated?
Yes
What would be the cause if when the engine makes a light screeching noise when the AC is off but when turned on the noise goes away on my focus?
There may be some drag on the AC clutch when it is disengaged as the clutch 'free-wheels' during this time. When you engage the AC ,the clutch 'locks up' and the noise disappears. If the noise gets worse you may need to replace the clutch, if it stays the same and it not very loud, I would not replace it.
AC compressor - clutch seems to be locking upmaking noise can only the clutch be replaced or does the entire Compressor need to be replaced?
If the AC pulley is locking up when the ac compressor clutch engages, it's not a clutch problem, it's a compressor problem. But yes, the AC clutch can usually be replaced separately. The problem is, if the clutch is worn out the compressor is probably worn out as well. It usually isn't that much more to replace the whole thing.

Why is air conditioner is making loud noise?
Could be the clutch is gone. If that is the problem, you can have just the clutch changed, but don't wait too long. If it is the bearing, then have to change the compressor. When it is running, you will see the clutch wobble. The clutch can be changed with the compressor on the car. There is room.
