Default Proper Way in removing 92-95 AC system.

Can anyone make a list in what needs to be removed?
I have a 93 cx which I am building, the ac is mint and works great, but I don't want it.
I want to remove everything so that I can sell it to a person who needs it
thanks
Any faq?
I couldn't find anything.
I want to remove everything

I just removed mine the other day. It's very simple.

-Start by removing the cables off the battery terminal.
-You're going to see 2 10mm bolts that are holding the fan onto the rad. supoprt. Remove those.
-On the very bottom, there are 2 more 10mm bolts. They're hard to see, remove those.
-Remove all the wires on the right side from the fan.
-Pull the fan out.
-Now, with the AC belt in plain view, cut it.
-At this time, you can plainly see the AC compressor, there are 4 12mm bolts in a square formation, remove those.
-The compressor will now fall, and is free from the block.
-There is still 1 AC hose that connects to the firewall.
-Remove your battery and intake so you can easily take this host apart.
-Get a cresent wrench over the big nuts that holds the hose together.
-Remove the hose and put everything back together.

It's really simple and took me like an hour to do.

I understand that, and I told you how to remove them.

If you look at everything, you can see how easy it is to un-install.

yea it is very simple. to get all of it you gotta go under the dash and take out the heater blower or loosen it and take out the center plastic box looking thing then take that apart and theres a silver styraphoam thing. i just replaced the plastic box empty and my heat still works. you could get that peice off another car that didnt come with ac. and that thing doesnt even weigh a pound.

You might want to get the freon drained first. I heard it depletes the Ozone layer and I doubt you want that stuff to be shooting out into your garage when u start unbolting things.

When I did mine over a year ago.. I had a shop suck out the freon and then I just unbolted every single AC component minus the AC button on the dash and sold it for $200.

Yes, definitely drain your freon first. It's very simple to remove. I didn't remove the peice from the interior yet. I need to get on that.
