While the motor is out I am thinking of removing the AC. It is an aftermarket set up but looks nicely set up. A lot of rear weight and I have never even tried to use it or repair it in the eight years I've had the car.
If anyone can ID it as a worthwhile system I might try and resurrect it to a functioning system (wifes preference). Up until now I only used the car to keep it running and excessed but this year that will change. Presently in the N.Y mountains but will retire with me to N.C..
If the hoses are not compatible with R134 that will probably be a big driver to remove.
Here are a few pics.
There is a half condenser on the engine lid and an other with an electric fan in the left rear wheel well behind the plastic cover. and the rest in the smugglers box with a small receiver/drier and valve.
Thanks - Terry
