Hi guys,
Most likely I'll have to replace my pas pump (now 1.7 engine with a/c bits): 5000km ago a new aux belt was fitted, but it has been making an irritating noise since (and its been getting louder). Because I have no use for my aircon pump, I want to get rid of it and fit a shorter aux belt, Fiesta non A/C pas pump (already lying around in the shed), Fiesta pas hoses (aquired).
I've read a lot about this topic here, but the discussions are from a couple of years ago, so I'm not able to see the photos anymore. Does anybody have a (photographed) guide of this (removing a/c pump, new route of the belt etc). Also, there are different suggestions, fitting a focus mk1 pump instead of the Fiesta's, stating the Fiesta pump will not bolt on. Can anybody confirm or deny this? Equally, there are different advices about the new belt, should I get the 6pk1750?
Before dismantling everything (dreading the job), I'd like to know I got the right parts.
Thanks in advance!
Matti.
