Keep refrigerant pressurized and circulating through your A/C system with the Four Seasons ac compressor, part number 78609, a new Sanden TRS090 compressor. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-1998 Mazda Protege (engine: All), with one compressor used per vehicle.
The compressor is the pump of the A/C system: it draws in low-pressure refrigerant vapor, compresses it, and sends it on to the condenser. This Four Seasons compressor comes with both the clutch and a heat sensor included.
- Built to OE standards: Designed around original equipment specifications for dependable performance and consistent cooling.
- Durability tested: New compressors from Four Seasons are tested to deliver durability equal to 100,000 miles.
- Oil pre-charge: Ships pre-charged with 3 ounces of PAG oil, which cuts down on prep time.
- OE-style connectors and seals: OE-style connectors are designed for a precise fit, which helps avoid splicing. O-rings (24608 and 24610) and sealing washers are included; mounting hardware is not.
