[Shotimes] Bypassing A/C pulley?

[Kirk Doucette]

I would also add

Remove the clutch, the rubber insert can rot causing the mechanism to get
jammed, or fall out like the Blue car at Halett.

The bearing for the pulley has nothing to do with the compressor.  If the
compressor is shot, but the pulley and bearing are still good, just unplug
the wire going to the coil.  This will prevent the A/C  clutch from
engaging.  There is no need to bypass the A/C pulley.

Hey,

Quick question.  Can I buy a shorter accessory belt for my '93 ATX and
totally
bypass the A/C pulley?  I fear my compressor my be shot, but I obviously
don't
want the pulley to seize, snapping the belt, leaving me stranded with no PS,
no alternator, etc.

Anybody have a part number, or just a length, that will work?

Thanks,
