Hi,
Seems like this will not cause any problems, but thought I'd ask anyway.... I removed the fan belt from the "a/c compressor, power steering pump, waterpump " circuit, since it was squealing and annoying the neighbors. No more squealing.
So now, the difference is basically that instead of having 2 belts powering the power steering pump, I have one.
The a/c was shot anyway (no freon), so no loss there. I know the defroster is supposed to kick on the compressor too, but that's no big loss, as far as I can tell.
Car runs fine.
I guess my question is : Does the power steering pump really need 2 belts driving it?
Thanks.
