bypassing the ac


Recommended Posts

can i just get the ac delete belt and call it a day (for now) or is the ac pulley going to be in the way of a non-ac belt?

Just unplug it..there is a clip kinda on top of the compressor .. unplug it and its just a simple free spining pully

well, that might help, but reason I asked is because i think the pulley bearings are on the way out. ill go check it out, thanks

3.4's don't have an ac delete pulley since A/C is standard on them. If you don't want A/C I would start unbolting and cutting all the lines off.

Heh, my convertible had the same problem. It actually got bad enough to stall the engine once.

I thought about temporarily bypassing it, but the only way I found to bypass it would have been less than temporary.

 

Had to get a "new" compressor, I think I paid $120, ouch.

 

You can replace a pulley bearing, but it needs a bunch of specialty tools.
