Re: Any AC compressor conversions for R134A?

So I need to figure out if the previous owner did it correctly.

When I bought it I charged it. It worked great for a week or two and than stopped getting cold. I bought a couple of cans to see if I needed to charge it again and noticed the compressor belt was turning but it wasn't engaging so it couldn't be charged. I'm wondering if the clutch burned out.

If the conversion was done correctly by the previous owner and I have a bad compressor now what would I need to do to the new remanufactured compressor?
You can change the clutch and pulley without opening the system if that's the only issue.
