Buying a used AC compressor: what to check

  1. Ask whether the compressor was removed with the system still sealed. Open systems ingest moisture.
  2. Confirm the clutch engages freely and the pulley spins without grinding.
  3. Match the refrigerant type (R-134a vs R-1234yf). They don't interchange.
  4. Budget for a new receiver-drier and system flush at installation.
