OK, its only 10 bolts to undo, but is that really necessary? I'm sure
someone out there knows a shortcut. If there isn't one then OK it's
body up. Any ideas? >>


The manual also says to raise it up to replace your clutch line. But at the 
advice of someone on the list, I simply had the mechanic thread it through, 
alongside the old one, and leave the old one in place. It's because of 
things like this that I'm working toward compiling a new, updated and 
exhaustive SERVICE MANUAL. Now that I'm back from Cleveland, I hope to get 
the ball rolling in earnest!! 
BTW, it would probably be a LOT harder to do with the big fat AC hose, if it 
can be done that way. I'd do both hoses while you're under there, if you go 
the "unbolt" route. Your bolts might be a lot harder than you think to 
loosen! :(
