[DML] Re: B28F Water Pump Pulley

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Every Volvo I've ever seen has a double belt pulley -- are you sure
you're not looking at pics of DeLorean PRV's with Darryl Tinnerstet's
aluminum pulley?

>From my measurements it appears a standard Volvo pulley will just
barely clear if you remove the upper A/C idler pulley and run a
slightly shorter belt (52" or so). My car came with only the lower
pulley and I've been running it like that ever since no problem (upper
pulley is bit of a kluge anyway compared to the integral lower one).
Compressor is standard Sankyo/Sanden which people put on every vehicle
imaginable, with every belt arrangement imaginable. Be sure you're
running a DeLorean crankshaft pulley with the smaller outer groove --
standard Volvo pulley with equal diameter grooves will interfere even
with Darryl's pulley.

I'm running a Tinnerstet pulley BTW -- the only bling on my whole vehicle.
