I do the opposite Posted by Saana88 [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Air Conditioning Install - A/C Fan, hms, Wed, 23 Nov 2005 21:16:04 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
You bet, '85 was when AC became standard equipment. I have taken to ripping the AC out of my cars for various reasons (broken to begin with, unnecessary in NY, one car's a convertible, adds weight, gets in the way, chews gas, I have allergies, et cetera) and I get a nice kick out of it.
If you have done this to your '84, please please please save me a few parts:
The bracket that held the cabin air filter (folds like an accordion to clear the PS reservoir)
The air hoses between the idle speed valve and the throttle body
The rear engine lifting ring
In my de-ACing operations I can never find these things- most 900s in the local (rust belt) junkyard are 1991 onward now.
Yep, the AC fan helps out. Anytime there is sufficient charge in the system (and the over/underpressure switch on the reciever/dryer is therefore closed) and you hit the AC button, the fan will turn on. This is in fact the only bit of AC remaining on my cars, so the snowflake/AC button turns on the second cooling fan when I tell it to. One or two relays drop into the fusebox and relay box, and theoretically the system drops in; I've made it drop out.
Please e-mail me with regards to the status of those parts if you still have them. Don't ask me how to put the evaporator in; I remove them via a hacksaw.
