After changing my blend door/blend door actuator I've finally found the problem why my air conditioning won't work, my air compressor is shot. It doesn't engage at all, and I remember it sparking actually because the clutch wouldn't budge. So I plan on purchasing a new air compressor, cheapest one I found was $160, and I would like to change it myself but I’ve had a couple questions. I've heard that the new air compressor needs to be "Zeroed out", is this something I can do myself with common equipment or should I just take my new air compressor to a mechanic and have him do it? I've found detailed guides on how to replace the air compressor so I am confident I can take out the old one and hook up the new one but I am unclear on the "zeroing out" the new air compressor so it's completely empty of air.
