    draining just one should be fine, but both should be 'depressable'. and yeah that compresor weighs around 25 lbs. shit it fucking heavy on ur car, and u will know a lot of difference with the compressor gone and by the way i am talking about the denso compressor found on most lx-is and se-i's.

    I wish mine had originally come with the Denso. Then I wouldn't have had to spend $1,000 converting to the Sanden when the Keihin that came on my LXi died. The Keihin actually died twice. The first time the car was 2 1/2 years old and still under warranty and the second time was eight years later.

    I sure do like having nice cold R-12 air, though.
