Belt Routing for AC Delete
Can somebody post a picture or explain how the belt routes after the AC is taken out? I have the belt and the AC is out, I just need to know how to run the belt.

Thanks!

I thought you need to get an RS belt. Have you looked at the RS FSM?

Here's the belt from Napa. It's made by Gates and costs $30. Very nice belt. I posted this in another A/C delete thread a couple of days ago.

Celica2Evo, I'm checking to see if I took any pics of my motor on the engine stand when we had the belt on...if I find it I'll post it.

Soo easy. It goes on the same way just not on the AC compressor. U can do it with a 1/2" drive socket and turning your steering wheel right. 5 minutes.

it wont affect the motor.

I was pretty sure this is how it went when I asked, but just wanted to make sure.

It will also be useful in the future when others want to do this and actually SEARCH! lol

May as well pull out the compressor and benefit from the weight reduction, extra space in the engine bay
