Default compressor?

i have a b series compressor off of my car and i cant hook it up to see if its good so is there any way to tell if its still good without installing it? the pully spins freely and the end part is kinda stiff

A helms or haynes manual will inform you what to check for

spin the clutch part in the direction it would normally travel with the belt on and put your fingers over the ports. If you can feel air compressing it is probably good. Listen for unusual noise that would signal a bad clutch.

I know it isn't really the most technical way but it works outpretty well for the most part.
