Replacing the A/C Compressor

[fixkick]

leaving what?
is the sport volume (mass really of the R134) same as the non sport, J18 to G16 cars.
only way to learn that is to find data on the sport.
my guess, is its the same but that is just a guess...

ill read the sport master parts list to see if there are other sport supplements, besides that EFI J18 supplements. Id say if this blue efi book 9mm thick has no AC spec, then there is no book.
the G16 book has it. but does not mention the J18, car. not one word there,

I already got the first book, the wiring. The second book would be the most expensive one on earth to get, plus shipping because it is very far away! In the foreword of the Sport supplement, it clearly refers it even thought it, the Sidekick/X-90 one, not the Tracker one, does not mention even one word like you said! I think it is clearly there. May be Suzuki just wanted to play around with that, I don't know!!!

why not just down load the free 96 book.
use that. of need a chapter in print , then print it or have print shop do that, cheap.

You mean the Tracker at ack.com? Like I said the Sidekick/X-90, there are some things that may be different?

x90 is a sedan, but uses same driveline mostly. not much else.
The tracker, sidekick and vitara are all the same mostly (by year super close) same country and market, super super close.
the side kicks is SE416, the sport is SE418, totally a diff, car.
in fact the tracker is a badged product, they plaster GEO on it but if you open the hood, and look up, you see, oops its suzuki.'

the fsm is rewritten by GM, to there flavor from they cut pages out of real book , and add near same words, and add errors. as a side show.
but they never made a sport FSM, never seen one.
I think it says, use the regular fsm and then read the supplement. (a hack job )
there are many differences.. huge list.
They did NOT make a sport FSM and its a different car,and X90 has zero to do that this. x90 is g16 sedan 4wd.


here is the 2001 last listing on this car, with pn
note the words, to be used with, a sad sad deal there.
proof, and offical off the parts lists.

[fixkick]

one way to see the all differences
is to put the parts lists side by side
all parts, xxxxx-77Exx are sport only parts. and the list is HUGE
77 code is this
and can be found on cars newer, with J20 engines on up.
the engine and controls , EFI and all that and wiring are all unique,
so is the transmission controls.
and suspensions. and more,

the 96 sidekick manuals are rear, 96 tracker near the same, is not.
and the latter is free.
also ABS not same. nor maybe air bags, nor HVAC, and AC/.

the sport is like this wild experiment, and was a failure they sold very few of these cars, tiny sales, not sure if canada had better sales, but this car was dying from Consumers report, bad vibes then, sales fell like a rock.

Hi, look at this: Is it helpful for detecting AC leak or not?

anything you buy from china is toss of coin! Whats worse. easy, they change designs , and fix bugs, at random so any opinions would be useless. given that one fact.
but whats to lose. its dirt cheap
use the dye yet> then the kit has this dirt cheap lamp IR lamp that sees the leak?
but the below might make leaks in the evap core area more easy to find, (i think not at its too fully enclosed, but? if you stick that wand up the condensate port and sniff , maybe it finds this. leak there.

this is funny

only testing this works. on a real leak.
