A couple month ago my 2007 Lincoln. Mkx was making screeching noises and a/c went out.It blows the 10 amp fuse (under hood) for the a/c clutch
So I automatically assume the clutch is bad.I replaced whole a/c compressor with a used one that seemed to be in good shape.I pulled vacuum on system and attempted to put freon in but it kept blowing the same fuse! Can some one please help

And this is why AC repairs are not DIY jobs. The clutch wasn't your problem, high likely pressure was and since you never found or resolved the actual problem, you just made the whole thing worse. Using junkyard compressors is just a waste of money also.
You have no idea what caused the failure in the first place.
You have no idea how much oil is in the system.
AC repairs are for shops that specialize in this. Everyone thinks it's easy and everyone finds out the hard way that it is not.
