My PS Pump decided to fail (seize) in the middle of Kew Junction on Tuesday:D:D. The pulley has run forward about 8-10mm and the belt runs off from the rear, into the path of the A/C belt thus unleashing hell.
Both belts and the A/C wiring harness got mangled and the underbonnet 30amp fuse for the condensor fans and airconditioning clutch blew. Not happy as I had to drive through the intersection and clearway at peak hour to a side street with no water pump, cooling fan or electric fans!!!!

I was advised that the AC wiring was a non fixable item and that a new AC compressor would be required.
How did you end-up?
Had squeek on the D1 V8,changed the belt,checked water pump,and changed belt tensioner,it turned ot to be the power steering pump bracket was out of aligment,fix bracket it was all sweet

Now Joel, that was silly of you to even drive it knowing that the ps pulley had drifted forward already, the signs were there and you took the risk and paid the price. :wasntme:Quote:

60 seconds with a Stanley knife and a 7PK1580 Serpentine belt is now a 5PK1580:eek::D.Quote:

Untill it comes all the way out and it will seize and take out your rad/ intercooler and possibly the alt as well.Quote:
