|  short belt I'm trying to run a short belt to bypass the airconditioning. I bought a 850K5 belt and it squeaks like hell when I crank it and give it some throttle. Is anyone out there running this type of setup who would know whats going on. I think it might be the way I have to put the tensioner in. I have to run the belt through it instead of over the top of it, so I cant get any tension on it. The belt is fairly tight though without tension. Is the belt wide enough, too short, or do I have the tensioner on the wrong way? Can someone please help me! |

| slipping You need tension on your belt. That's most likely your problem. Your belt is slipping.

| The problem with bypassing the AC is that you can't route a belt properly. You either need to move the power steering pump up higher or get a AC delete pulley kit.
