Yeah, and why he's at it, he should also get the AC compressor and the
alternator replaced. (rolling eyes).

============

On what planet would the AC compressor make your **necessarily** car
stop running? The word "necessarily" eliminates mentioning the one
exceptional condition under which it might happen, because that
situation is avoidable by operating a switch.

when the a/c clutch on my vette seized, it was either run it and have it
catch fire because the serpentine belt was being dragged over a stopped
pulley, or get it towed. that would pretty much define 'stop running'.
