What is this?? (Page 1/1)

It sits on the back of the compressor, and on my 3800sc swap it sits in a bracket and helps mount the compressor. I think it’s a pressure relief? I need to know, I need a new 1 to swap to the new compressor, the port it screws into has different threads.

High pressure safety value. It releases pressure if the main switch fails to shut off the compressor.

I can’t find 1 that looks like this that’ll fit into the bracket, any ideas? I just looked it up on google.

Junkyard or parts store. They are common on most compressors and certainly on any GM 80's and up AC compressors.

Try one from a 92-95 Buick Century or LeSabre/Bonneville, etc.
