The AC Compressor consists of the compressor itself and the clutch assembly. The compressor has 2 ports, and inlet and outlet, or 'suction' and 'discharge' respectively. The suction port is always the larger diameter hole. Refrigerant is 'sucked' into the compressor, compressed, and 'discharged' through the outlet, headed for the condenser.
