Question 2001 jaguar XK8 AC bypass belt

I need to temporarily bypass my ac compressor on my 2001 Jaguar XK8. Can someone tell my where to get a belt that does this or can you inform me on a belt that maybe fits from another car that does this?

Welcome.

There is no listing I can find for that car WITHOUT a/c, so obviously NO part number in any system.

The original belt is a 7PK2320, so its 2320mm long, simple.

Basically measure around the pulleys youi want to include, and go to a parts shop and give them the length you have worked out, and it has to be a 7PK spec belt.

You will make many, many trips and try many, many belts, until success strikes.

Good luck.

As you already posted an Intro in January 2012, I've moved this question from New Member Area - Intro a MUST to XK8/XKR forum.

If it is possible and there is a belt available, members here with the same model are the ones likely to know.

Why do you want to bypass the A/C unit?
