Can anyone help me out here?

I can't find a way to get down to the top bolt on the AC compressor (on the 2.8). I was finally able to loosen the bolt at the bottom that allows the compressor to slide, but it is still way too tight to move. Does anyone know how to get to the bolt on the top?

Thanks in advance,
Rob

Congradulations! You are looking at one of the PITA's of the V-6 Fiero! I've tried to get to it from the top using a few different extensions and a U-joint with my brother helping hold it all in place and that would have gotten it off, but to get it back on looked too difficult from that point of view. I ended up not removing it and took it to someone with a hoist and they did the job by going underneath the car with it in the air. I wasn't about to crawl under there and do it laying on my back. A car ramp doesn't give me enough room.
