basicly whilst i was replacing the downpipe i sanped off one of the aircon pipes when i got the exhaust manifold off.

how easy is it to take out the air con completely as its hissing like hell now one of the pipes is snaped.
it looks asif the power steering pump and the aircon pump are the same. are they?

what is needed on the belt side of things. im asuming the cambelt will not need to be touched but what about the aux belt as that spins the aircon/powersteering?

can u just take off the aircon pump or do u need to replace the powersteing pump to one without aircon?

basicly a quick step by step guide by someone who has successfully removed aircon before would be great.
