How much you got? The best answer I can give is to tell you that depends on why you are replacing it. Compressors in self-destruct mode scatter bad stuff throughout the system and not removing the bad stuff will seriously shorten the life of the new compressor. Add to that different areas of the country and different service establishments in the same part of the country charge drastically different fees for the same service. The only answer to your question that has any meaning at all is the price someone who is willing to fix it has quoted you. Don't be afraid to get more than one price quote.
