a/c bypass pulley?

[dpuns88]

I'm curious if someone might know if I can bypass my a/c pulley in my 2002 grand prix gtp? I've seen it on eBay but I've contacted part stores they say they don't have it or don't even know

Yay

It's just a bypass from an 80's 2.8, for more money, because you bought it from ZZP.

Your not going to the right parts stores then...Dorman makes one.

Which isn't listed for a SII+ 3800, but works.

Oh... didn't know that.
I asked for one at my local parts store and got one, guess it goes back to going to a good parts store that can cross reference stuff and know their parts instead of just punching year of car into computer and saying "Nope can't get one"

Hello I believe I've finally found that I can get a bypass pulley for my gtp but am curious if anyone knows of or if their is any advantage to it or not? Thanks

Merged your thread, you didnt need 2 with the same basic question.

If your AC compressor is broken and you don't want to fix it, either leave it and or remove the compressor and the other parts aswell.


You won't really gain anything by removing it, other than the weight which isnt much and nothing you'd notice.

If I remove it then what different belt? Is that possible or do I still need the pulley? Thanks

If you remove the compressor, you have to buy the A/C delete pulley, then run the same belt.
