I went through this last May with my 87 9000S. The clutch on my compressor went out, as was evidenced by the burning smell of the A/C compressor belt. I ordered a rebuilt from Impex Distributors, 1-800-736-3550. The total cost was $310, including the shipping to me and return of the core to them. You should also plan on replacing the Rec/Dryer and expansion valve. My Saab independent supplied the rec/dryer, expansion valve, one pound of freon and the labor to install for less than $400. You can also check with AMC Manufacturing. Ken Washington 87 9000S 87 900S 83 900T
