If it locked up you will need to remove the orfice tube (which will be clogged with metal & debris) remove the reciever/dryer, pressure flush the entire system with a solvent, and after drying it all out install a new reciever/dryer (it is the equivelent of the engine oil filter but for the A/C system) pull vac to make sure all moisture is out, and then recharge with the correct amount of oil & R-134A. We have many of the parts in stock and can meet or beat the compressor price for you.:thumbsup:
