Hi
I just installed a timing belt kit on the wife's 98 1/2 -99 2.0 thanks to all the great How Too post on here , plus the discount from here at Rock Auto .
I don't like the feel of the A/C Compressor Pulley and want to by-pass it for a couple of months till I can install a new compressor ( Bone Yards are $ 75. to $ 100. with 140 + miles on them ) I have also read that the by-pass pulley kit's break ?
I read the many threads here on the subject , and picked up a 790K6 belt ( 78.94 in. ) , it is Way Too Big , the stock belt is just shy of 83 in. .
I was just wondering if anyone had a number for a by-pass belt ? I would wrap a string on it ,but it is pouring out here and I wanted to try and finish up without 1/2 a dozen trips to Auto-Bone in the morning .
Thanks
Bob
