I’ve driven home 10 miles with a frozen alternator on my 300d using a shoe string to turn the water pump after I cut off the belts
.
I learned this trick in desperation when I threw a water pump/alternator belt on Volkswagen in the middle of nowhere during my cross country move in the 1990’s.
I just happened to have shoe laces in my glove compartment at time. It is now a must for my emergency kit.
