Hello there i need some help in bypassing the AC compressor with the serpentine belt. Why? Well that's because the bearing for the pulley in the compressor has kicked the bucket and i do not have the time to replace it just yet because 2 jobs with one of them being a delivery driver so the vehicle is necessary, or the money to bring it to a shop which would take several weeks as all the local ones are booked out.
I've come up with 2 ideas on how to do what i want to, but would like a 2nd or 3rd opinion on them. I was going to use a measuring tape to find out the length of belt i needed unless somebody can do the math.phoca_thumb_l_2.8l-belt.gif

Option B is your only real option, the grooves on the belt are not correct for option A.

Use a shoe string, I find it works the best.
