First time really using A/C since I bought car: screeches when clutch engages 200 1993

My experience with the screech is with a B23, York compressor, but it might carry to your situation.

Engaging the clutch made a screech, and I noticed that it sort of chirped every now and then while runing. Looked at it while running, it was flapping loose - though it looked OK when still.

Tightening the belt fixed the noise.

Your other responses are all good, go for the belt check and replacement. The missing parts are likely junkyard-obtainable parts.

Good Luck,

Bob
