Ouch

OK, so today I did a run up to Sunny Coast and back. After 30 minutes each way, it started to smell of burnies. If i turned off the AC, smell went away.

When I got home, left engine running and AC on, red hot ring inside pulley. I now believe that this was caused by the coil overheating. I reckon there must be something wrong in the AC control system, and this would explain why I found that the last coild had melted plastic on the front and the fuse was blown.

So what would cause this?

On the tensioner - repacking all but got rid of, or at least masked the whizzing.

Yeah umm no.

hey Bugsta,

Did you ever get the bottom of this mate? My aircon has started cutting in and out whilst driving and you can here it engage and disengage with a whizzing noise. Had it regassed a little while ago so its cold etc but pretty much the same symptoms as you with the clutch.
