If you are facing the car looking down on the alternator...the adjusting bolt goes tru to the back there is another bolt just above it and to the right..that is the one I am trying to get off...it looks like it goes thru the alt and bracket...seems as tho it is the only thing left to come off...pushing up on the alternator it was pivoting on that bolt...but now seems to be binding...

yeah. all the bolts come off from the back of the alternator. the front nuts are either welded on, or pass through the adjuster tower.

it was that last bolt that was the bugger, was trying to remove it from the backside and it just would not budge the one closest to the engine. I did not have an offset wrench he called it a broke neck...but we are back in business now!!
Now for the a/c...that was where I was headed to the parts store to get freon when the belts broke off... VSTEC, you prob will know the answer to this.... the caps on the a/c hoses are blue and the other is red..so does this mean the a/c is converted to 134? How can I tell if the PO did it right?? I have not noticed any stickers anywhere.. the a/c hoses that are in the engine bay are blue..I thought the blue hoses were r-12 the fittings are smooth and look like they are the clip on kind not the screw on |

That would suggest that the refrigerant has been converted to R-134a. Not a good thing in Florida.
