Ac compressor

I purchased an 85 325 ac compressor from a friend parting out his car I have a 86 325e was wondering if I can/should use 325 mounting bracket or stock beaker and if I can even use this compressor it works and I got it for 15$ so any thoughts would great. Just got it today so havnt really looked at anything won't be able to till this weekend

should. still need a shop to fill the system unless you do the conversion while its all apart

Well I replaced expansion valve, condensor, evaporator, receiver dryer, did retrofit the connections, just need to flush and install compressor just hopeing it mounts to the bracket....

Ok so I replaced compressor but it didn't fit right for some reason so I'm wondering on my stock ac compressor when you turn the clutch by hand is it suppose to cycle the oil in it and push out the oil... Or would it only do that when you have it hooked up to the car and power going to it like a magnetic clutch.... Just asking cause the one I bought would push out oil if I turned by hand but the stock one I have does not do it... Hope to hear back from someone that knows... Thanks

the compressor shouldnt move anything without power to the clutch. sounds like the one you got has a seized clutch

Yea that's what I was thinking if turned by hand it shouldn't push any fluids unless there's power to magnetize it right?....

Ok so I had to jump the compressor to charge the system there's no power going from the ac switch on the dash to the compressor I replaced it with 4 diff ones just to be sure and I guess the wiring is messed up... Any advice/suggestions on a fix?
