Hi again,  My AC compressor makes a racket from time to time as the clutch rattles and grinds on the pulley.  Does anyone know which belt to use if you wish to bypass the compressor pulley all together  I know you can get a by pass pulley that you install once you've removed the compressor but it seems a grey area as to what's entailed when it comes to fitting them to a 3.8 series II engine. I await your knowledgable response

Unfortunately, those will not fit my engine. I know ZZPerformace do a bypass pulley for the 3.8 series II engine that you can make work but I'm now just toying with the idea of just fitting a shorter belt and do away with the need for the pulley all together! I've heard that an 802K6 belt will do the job but has anyone here done this? |

I fitted a shorter belt on my 3.8 ,but sits very tight to the heater pipe outlets,if you twist the connecter thing all the way it does clear, been on there a month or so now with no pobs,i put a 2080 mm belt on ,bit of a lash I know ,but it works till I get the bearing sorted on the a\c pump,if you can get hold of a 4 rib instead of the 6 rib it will have more clearence |
