I'm talking about removing the compressor, condenser (unit that sits in front of the water radiator like a "second radiator" that cools the R-12 refrigerant), receiver-drier, expansion valve, interconnecting pipes, and any and all other paraphernalia associated with the A/C in the engine compartment area that gets in the way of working on the rest of the engine.

Hi there, I've had the EXACT SAME NAVIGATION ISSUES!! WITH THIS WEBSITE - REALLY CONFUSING. I finally figured out the following:

To POST NEW THREAD:
1) On Home Page (Ford Forums - Ford Enthusiast Discussion & Forums) scroll down and click on words "New Member Area"
2) Sign in (User Name / Password)
3) Look for short red bar that says "New Thread" and click on that

To CHECK FOR REPLIES (LATER) TO YOUR POSTED QUESTION:
1) Sign in on Home Page
2) Click on [Your_User_Name] in upper right-hand corner where it says "Welcome [Your_User_Name]"
3) Click on "Statistics" tab - lower left-hand quadrant
4) Click on "Find all threads started by [Your_User_Name]"
5) Look for replies in "Replies" column; if any, click on ">>" in "Last Post" column

Maybe there's a better way but this is what works for me right now.
Good luck!
