did you do like the book shows , hot wire the compressor (FSM)
shows doing that, then it says,
don't do that long. (like all week)
and best, is to now, to check lowside and high side pressure for proper values.
a bigger issues, is where you will get R12?
before doing anything,decide what is really bad, and if you need to open the loop.
but if you are a tad low, where to get extra R12.
if yours is inact , you can reclaim it.
others just do r134 and live with 50% loss of permormace ,but better than nada.
Be aware , some compr. seals self destruct at R134 swap.
did the hot wire test fail, on the clutch.?
you can buy a new clutch cheep too.
This is a USA answer , in other places they do what ever.
you said Clutch compressor. I presume it could be either.?
