Sorry George - I probably won't have a chance to change fluid level for another week or two when I can get the car out for a drive. I'll keep you posted though.

I don't know anyone else other than those on the HT thread who have tried to remove the system.

**Even if it is NO easier then just removing the belt, I think it's worth it. I always tie down the a/c belt before a track day & now I don't have the p/s pump in the way!!
