COuld be just the clutch not grabbing from wear and noise
from it too. But the R4 compressors are not real reliable. And for those
with serpentine from a camaro or caprice use the compressor from a later
truck or burb cause it has a smaller pulley and spins faster hence moves
more refrigerant and just works better for colder air especially at idle.
Now for compressors and GM parts check here. SOme great deals.
