a.c. removal
I'm sure im mising it, but I was lookin for a writeup on a.c. removal and couldnt find anything in the archive or the 2nd gen. forum..anyone know if there is one....
side question, is there a way to disable the power steering temporarily to see if i can stand driving it with no p.s. (a fuse?),
related question....if i remove the a.c. but want to keep the p.s., can I still remove the BAC or will i have idle problems keeping the p.s.
and as always sorry if im way in left field on this

^That is how to properly disable power steering and keep the P/S rack.
A/C is pretty much just taking the stuff out. You can either just remove the basicly or tear everything even remotely related to A/C out.
Honestly I vote that you disable P/S or put in a manual rack. It will clean the engine compartment up A LOT. Plus it is a lot of weight removal. Having no P/S is not really that big of a deal. You might have problems dry steering your tires to death. No big deal.

if you remove the power steering it isnt totally necessary to install a manual rack. just leave some fluid in the steering rack and plug up the holes with the correct threaded bolts. it really isnt that hard w/o power steering or a manual rack, you get used to it real quick.
