Thank for both of your reply.

I swapped the AC and fuel pump relay, since they are both the same. So that's how I tested it. I'm not in town, so can't get a picture, but if you open the hood, and find the fuse box on the driver side, near the firewall and the brake booster, you should be able to locate the relay easily using the guide in your user's manual. When it's NOT working, try touching it with a screwdriver. If the magnet grabs your screwdriver, then it's not the relay - the clutch just isn't engaging.
Yes, that's the same thing I did. But I also checked the pressure and added some freon, and it's all good. Still cycles too fast, until it gets hot enough outside that it doesn't need to cycle at all. Occasionally though, it just shuts off. I turn off the AC and wait a minute or two, and turn it back on, and it's fine again for a while. I'm starting to suspect the temp sensor on the heat exchanger, but I don't know if that external or internal, or where it is.

I might have to replace mine soon and am curious about this too... It'd be nice to be able to replace the clutch without removing the compressor, but I hope that doing it this way won't strip threads off anything...

On my 2000, the field coil still works fine, just the bearings are shot, and the pulley is really wobbly. Do you think I could just swap the pulley / bearings, and leave the current field coil (which seems to be the hardest part of this job)?
I'd be willing to shell out the extra $$$ for the Ford part, if it out be that easy...
