ENG: Taken out the Evaporator

[i97supratti]

The evaporator is part of the AC system. Take it to a shop and have them legally pull it out of your system. After that pull off the compressor, A/C lines, condensor, i think its an accumulator or air dryer i get both mixed up sometimes, and that should be it. And yes you will have to get a new belt when you take out your A/C.

A new A/C belt you mean? Why?

I believe its a $20,000 fine if the EPA catches you.


Good job on the write-up, but one thing you should add is that any A/C shop will LEGALLY evacuate the freon from your system for FREE. Once that's done you can do all the A/C work you want.

as i know of now when i went to school it is now 85,000 now

i probably speak for a lot of people, would love a really good DIY write up on removal of the whole AC system. i have been wanting to do this, mine hasn't worked for years, but reluctant because i dont want to break anything. also, i would like to keep my PS.

i would be willing to use my car for a kick ass write up with pics and all if there is someone who wants to help me out. i would buy the beer
just a thought.

a repair manual tells you how to take all that shit out, a diy isnt needed.

[accordzoom]

so i dont have nor do i plan on buying/printing a repair manual...

I am mostly looking for how people went about getting the compressor out, with all the obstacles.
Thanks wed3k.
