Anyone have a guide on how to get the a/c pump out? removed everything else but i can see an easy way to remove it :(
Do you have to remove the power steering and all the pulleys n belts?
cheers
anyone help me on this? looks a mare to do :S
It wasn\'t that difficult iirc. I left the ps in place, just removed the belt. Two long bolts I think, wasn\'t that tricky at all.
its 4 bolts n the last one was a total fooker to get out :( u lied to me memski... no christmas card for u!! lol..
Glad its out noo, takes up so much space and im toying with removing the power steering now and that a be that whole side of the bay empty :)
cheers anyway peeps :D
Lol sorry :) I took the twins out before doing the ac so maybe that\'s why it seemed easier :o
my twins r out 2 lol.. going non-seq :P
If you remove the power steering let me know mate as I want to put mine back in! Might be able to do a deal? My setup at the moment uses an electric pump from a small hatch. Its good for track but too stiff for drifting.
any pics royal of your setup? how easy is it to fit bud, cn maybe do a swop :)
I don\'t think it would be hard to sort out? its just bolted in there. There\'s a lot of space in my engine bay though so depends how much stuff is removed form yours. I\'ll try to get some pictures this week. I need to check its all do-able for me as my alternator has been moved as well. That may need to be put back in its normal place.
theres a **** load removed from me engine bay bud so i think it shud be ok :) is it the saxo pump?
I think so ? I\'ll need to check with John Yorke who used to own the car.
hey
what belt did you end up using?
i took all the rad pipes and wee thing at the front out 2nite,
but not the pump as i need the belt 1st?
u dont need the belt bud, just means u wont have power steering, gives u a chance to see if ya wanna remove it :)
good point lol
what a ****, been busy today heads not quite working.:Tongue1
oh by the way on thate note if you use a 206 eletric one its a lot stronger than the saxo / 106 one. (power steering one)
im prety shure the rally cars use it too.
as long as its been on the rex i`ll let u off lol..
join r scottish club bud, plenty of meets and convoy to shows coming up :)

well got my mums car going 1st then the rex (and a tiny bit of cossie to) not done the birds yet thoe lol,
ill look at club thingy ta
got the pump and that out,
that wee bolt at the back is a right pain in the rear.
its ok untill you cant get the socket off cause it hits the inner wing, just to tight to do it by hand and akward to get a spaner on (and only a 11 or 13 rachet spaner)
ahh well its off none the less.
hehe.. i ground down a 12mm socket so was ok but till a fiddle :S
o a handy wee tip, get someone to push the engine to the right a bit lol.. helps get yer big fat hands down there :)
