Thanks for the replies, that was a great article and it's my same compressor. Looks like between the compressor and the dash pods I have a couple weekends of AC work ahead of me. That seal must have started leaking not long after the compressor was installed by a local AC shop for $900.00. I still have my old vacuum pump and gauages and about twenty lbs of R-12, altho it's been a while since I have done AC work, and I have never opened up a compressor. I have a whole box of assorted clutch removal tools I got at a yard sale, maybe one will work on the Nippo.
On second thought maybe I better have it charged at a shop, it's pretty hard to measure the right amount from those 12oz cans.
