Some 1985-86 'J' Models with 2.0L engines may experience a broken air conditioning compressor discharge pipe. If this occurs, a bracket and clamp to support the muffler is now available to prevent reoccurrence of the failure. Bracket and clamp support kit, Part Number 22535625, is now available from GM Parts and should be installed. The bracket can be installed by removing the compressor to bracket bolt and installing the bracket and clamp as shown in Figure 1.
General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
