john82wa Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Ive tried searching on the site and can't seem to find anything on how to declutter the engine bay. I have no use for the A/C, I live in WA State and I wouldn't mind moving some things around to get it cleaned up. Is there a write up somewhere that I have missed?

Frenchi934 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 you can remove the abs canister, the ac and lines, if you dont want cruise control you can remove the module and the vacuum pump infront of the core support, the vacuum lines can be cleaned considerably and the secondary air system/charcoal canister can be removed and still pass emissions. The relays are commonly relocated into the inside of the drivers fender to help further clean up the engine bay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john82wa Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 (edited) Removing the ABS canister will obviously kill the ABS and will it trigger any lights on the dash? Edited March 28, 2012 by john82wa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 yeah, but there's a little computer under the false floor in the trunk that you unplug then the light goes away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 It sure does look nice, to declutter. But for spoiled peeps like me, I sure do enjoy my AC and I do like cruise control. I always did like the fuse box in the fender idea, only problem is those fuse links sure do go bad, more often than I care to remember. But hey, that's just the old fart in me talking.

mistapickles Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 want to post the link??? cause I remember you having problems and I remember every person who did it having problems.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starquestJOE Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Only problem I have had was on a 89 harness two plugs near the t stat are the same. And if you swap them the car won't start. I fingered it out and the car started right up. Other then that, yes I had to pull the fender because I had lost all lighting. Once I found the problem it was a fuse able link burnt down at the spade. Now I put the fuse able links right behind the marker light so I could get at the without pulling the fender. Only reason I pulled the fender was at first I checked to see if the links were burnt- pinching them, and all where fine. AFTER PULLING THE FENDER I found the the link burned down at the spade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89BananaQuest Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Yea i mounted my fusable links at the bottom pointing towards the ground so i can get to them with the fenders on still. Do it! Its a fairly easy mod and looks very good when u do it right. I did mine and havnt looked back yet! Gets so many looks and questions, and cleans the bay up so much!

89BananaQuest Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I lay on the ground and look up and check them! U just gotta be smart about your placement if stuff. Not hard to spend a few extra minutes planning stuff like that out...... And even if i had to pull the fender i can have my fender off in less then 5 minutes if i had to. Its not hard to keep a 10mm and a phillips screw driver in your car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
