JTCN Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 So I was on my way home tonight when all of a sudden my fan belt snapped. I was left stranded and had to pull in to a little parking lot and leave my car because it was overheating. I had a friend pick me up and I'm at his house for the night until tomorrow when we try to find a new fan belt. But I know in the process of installing a new fan belt you have to remove the ac belt. I really dont have time or the tools to spend installing 2 belts before my car gets towed. Can I drive without an ac belt? My plan is to just loosen the idler and pull that belt off to install the fan belt, and just drive it with only the fan belt on until i get home. The car is about 15 miles from my house. I just don't want to mess with putting the ac belt back on because it can be hard to work on my car with the very little space between the fan and radiator.

Zetsaz Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Yes. Wouldn't be any different than just removing your AC, you just won't have a functioning system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
