How to Properly Burnish a New A/C Clutch During Installation on 2003 Dodge Durango?

After the new clutch is in place, turn the clutch on for five seconds and off again for five seconds, twenty times in a row. When following this process, first put the A/C/Heater control on recirculation mode (Max-AC+Heater), move the blower motor switch to its highest setting and keep the engine between 1,500 and 2,000 rpm. Placing the parts in a burnishing machine will properly space them out and give the clutch a greater sense of torque.
