How to remove AC?
okay, i havnt had a working AC in like 2 years. i just installed my Exhaust system, and we had to remove the non working AC compressor to fit the headers in. so now i have a bunch of left over wires and so on in my car. pretty much dead weight. I want to clean my engine bay, but also want to remove my AC wires. Any good docs on how to do it?
|
its easy work, first disconnect all the AC lines, pull out all the lines that as easily unboltable. Then unbolt the A/C rad fan and A/C rad, take those out, then lastly go for the compressor. I've done it a couple times took me an hour each time. If you need any help takin it off lemme kno.

You also need to remove the A/C button.
Basically, it's the reverse of installation. ;) |
the compressor is already gone. so ill give it a try.

why remove the a/c system? just leave it in there.......if you ever go to resell the car a/c adds so much value to the car. with a non-working or missing a/c system you will have a very hard time selling the car..

A/C is my Life :D but i hate all the weight

i said the same thing when i was 20 years old. i removed all the lines/compresor/condensor. big mistake. couple year lsater i ended up buying a whole used a/c system to put back in. the humidity gets to you more as you get older. imagine trying to go to a wedding or some formal gathering in the middle of the summer in a nice suit and you are sweating you nuts off.......not so cool.....plus if you plan to have a g/f and no a/c in the car.......haha.....imagine the bitching and complaining. :giggle: its your choise. i would leave the system in the car even if it does not work. |

there's also swapping the evaporator box for a heater duct and the plug on the firewall for the lines if you want to do it right.
