Bypassing ac compressor without removing compressor
Hello,
I would like to bypass the AC compressor, so I bought and installed the alternate belt. Installed it no problem.
My question is I did not remove the compressor and the back side of the belt touched the compressor just enough to make it spin. Starts and runs no problem.
Am I going to see any problems with this configuration? I'm just concerned this may cause undue ware on the belt.
Thanks.

Thanks all. I'll try to remove the compressor pully. Or if I have to the entire compressor.
I spoke to the guy I bought it from and he thinks there is no freon left, so I'm not worried about venting the gas. Worrying about venting the gas is the whole reason I just didn't pull the compressor in the first place.
Anyone know of a tutorial or video on removing the compressor. I could probably figure out, but any up front help couldn't hurt.
