[raziullah007]

Hi! I hope you can help me out here.  

I have an 87 toyota camry 2 liter 4 cylinder that has an acting up ac compressor. What it does is that when i turn on the ac, the clutch thing inside the pulley should grip and start spinning. Right??? Well....it grips for a bout 2 seconds and spins, and you can hear and feel the engine being overloaded with the ac, but then it stops spinning for another 2-3 seconds. engine relaxes. then, it grips again for 2 seconds and loses grip for another 2-3 seconds. What the **** should i do??? Please help!!!1
