A/C Delete question 98 Accord V6
Can you put a shorter belt on an Accord V6 to bypass the compressor? If so, what size?
Long version: My son has a 98 accord V6 (J30A1). The AC compressor is making a grinding noise with the AC on or off. I figure that either the bearing is bad or it's trashed internally. The car is about 40 miles away from me and I can't get a look at it for a few days. Can the compressor be bypassed with a shorter belt? Does the compressor have to be removed? I saw a good write up of it for the I4, but nothing for the V6.
Thanks
