M104 without airpump? Want a shorter belt
Hey all. My airpump on my 95 is starting to screach at certain rpms. The bearing in the pulley assembly is starting to go bad. I dont want to drop 250-400 right now on a reman one. I would like to try and replace the bearing itself when the nice weather comes back. Is there a way to bypass this pump with a shorter serpentine belt? Is that even possible? Im sure there are some euro spec cars out there that didnt have the pump? Just a thought. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
