just use the normal belt, the condensor wont run anyway if the A/C is off or has no gas, as the clutch wont engage unless everything is ok

yeah apparently you can use a belt and tensioner from a different corsa which by-passes the aircon pump? the garage that looked at my aircon said i need a new condenser and a full aircon service which amounts to just shy of £650! so there is no way im fixing it for that kind of money.

If your thinkin of getting a diffrent belt do you mean ur not putting it around the a/c pump?

Wots wrong with ur a/c ?

It is recomended that a/c is used once a week for more then 30 min.

alrite folks, anyone done the aircon by-pass thing with a shorter auxillary belt and the different tensioner? i was quoted £650 to fix my air con and tbh it aint worth it cos i hardly use it. im not sure which parts i need to do it? any help would be great cos im sick of it at the minute! its a corsa sport 1999 1.6
