i have to replace the AC motor on my 5sfe 91 NA. It is located on the side of the motor in a very hard to reach spot (passenger side next to exterior air vents). would i be better off working on the engine bay as it sits there or is it recommended to drop the entire thing and work on it like that or are there any tips/tricks to working on in those tight areas? im spending only one day working on the car in a hot environment (riverside lol) so i dont want to goof around and work against the car.
