When you unthread the hose make sure you wear some goggles, protective clothing etc. especially some leather or neoprene chemical gloves. That **** burns; keep it away from your eyes becuase it will come out with a lot of pressure when opened..... A LOT OF PRESSURE.

Dont do that. Thier is a little cap on the A/C hose next to the radiator, its like a tire cap but blue and bigger. Open that up and put a screw driver of anything in it that will press on the pin and let it go untill nothing comes out. When you remove the compressor dont remove the mount its mounted on because that is an engine mount. If you want to remove the hoses that do into the fire wall you have to get an integra RS unit for under the dash because all of the other **** like heat and air wont work because you will have a big chunk missing, i just left those in the car. I think you can remove your battery and disconnect some more hoses under it but thats where it stops.

its illegal to let the pressure out just like that....u have to properly discharge the gas, and also, if you're going to discharge the gas the illegal way, make sure you cover up your distrabutor cap and wires cuz that gas will fry up your dist.cap and rotor.

ok so:

1- I remove the gaz ( the legal way of course )
2- I remove the Fan,
3- unbolt the compressor, and let say I just Cut the tube that goes on my firewall so that I can remove all that crap fom the engine bay.

will my fan heat/cold still be working or those tube are needed for some reason?
