just trying to bump this a little but don't want to be annoying.. if anybody can provide insight into one or two of these questions as I prep for compressor R&R. I can't thank this community enough for all the help I've received over the last couple years - just want to throw out that genuine appreciation!

I’m just waiting for my flush to arrive before tackling the job. Couple questions remain during prep:
1) I want to test the power runing to the compressor clutch. I will jump at the relay - which relay box is this - on the front end of drivers side fender?
2) I was doing a dry run, planning our access to the bolts holding the compressor. Are there 4 or 3? Do I need to remove anything else from engine/compartment to actually remove/install the compressor? If not out of absolute need, is there a thing or two I could remove (without needing to drain coolant) that would make the job or access easier?
3) I’ve not really messed with my belts yet. Can I just approximate the tension when I put the belt back on, or do I need to deal with that more precisely? I’m hoping that in loosening the bolts on old I will be able to determine how this tension is adjusted.
