A/C Removal
« on: August 13, 2009, 10:31:00 AM »

So i just finished removing my ac condenser pump and all the hoses and what not.

What can i use to plug up those holes in the fire wall where the pipe came off, also do i need to plug that plug back into where that plug was. and also let me know if im missing anything else or anything else i need to do.

You can take it out but you need the piece that connects the blower box to the duct work/vents. Find a Capri in a wrecking yard with no a/c and grab it...or maybe even a BF series 323.
