Excellent video. Really helped me out a lot. Real knowledgeable guy. Showing how to bleed the block was inportant. This is the kind of thing a lot of mechanics just skip over.Subscribing today. Thanks

Very informative, thank you. Maybe by any chance do you know, what tool should I use to remove A/C clutch (rattles when A/C is off) on these Malibu's ('99 to be exact). As far as I know, these are pressed in types (maybe I am wrong ?) and to remove the clutch you have to attach special tool to the compressor shaft and pull the clutch back. Tried several tools from Autozone, couldn't crew to the shaft - a bit too big, Chilton doesn't have that info (don't wanna replace the whole compressor)...:(
