Compressor Output Test (1968-69)

Disconnect output line from compressor and connect a suitable gauge (T68N-5A681-B) to output line fitting. Start engine and note reading on gauge. It should read 60-80 psi in one minute. If compressor output is below normal, check vacuum supply at compressor to make certain that it is adequate. Check primary filter for obstructions before replacing compressor.
