AC compressor Prelude

hi.
On a Prelude 3rd generation, the AC is out of order 2 possibilities:
-compressor
-clutch of compressor

Here ( Marseilles south of FRANCE) impossible to find a remanufactured
products, so we have to put new spare part ... price ... scaring.
Have you any adress in Europe (or USA..) for those pieces, is it:
-sure?
- possible to get the clutch also?
-affordable?
-possible to find an adaptation one...

Many thanks.

Philippe

=======================

Third possibility: the air conditioning system will 'play dead' if the
coolant pressure is low. This safeguards the compressor from damage. You
should mention the year and mileage.

There is also a safety sensor for 'pressure too high' whose purpose is
also obvious.

Where I live, it's normal to have the coolant checked / topped up every
five years or so.
