a/c compressor smoking
As I was doing a radiator flush my a/c compressor started to smoke after i put in the new refrigerant and let it ran for about 10 mins. After it cooled I disconnected the electric connector for the a/c and let it run again for 10 mins and it didn't smoke ne more. Do I replace the clutch or the whole compressor?

I'm wondering if there was just water inside the clutch assembly. Did you catch the smell of the smoke? What did it smell like?
I'm going to guess on the time in which you posted this, and the time you did this project. If its been since yesterday that you did it, I would reconnect the connector today and see if it still smokes.
