89 Cherokee 4.0 AC
My serpentine belt snapped at three in the morning on the way home and left caked on burnt rubber on the fan and water pump pulleys, but very little on the idler, which was the only one that wouldn't spin, which probably melted the belt. After loosening the bolt, it just spins itself out.
I'd rather get rid of something that can break again and just get a shorter belt like so: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=95210&highlight=serpentine+belt
But I'm want to find out if doing that has caused any problems.
The AC pump is still connected but the AC unit has been torn out. Is there anything I should do with this?
