DAMMIT i drilled into that bolt that snapped off on the AC&CV and got a puller piece in there, then when i whent to unscrew it, it snapped off too. So I'm going to try using just 2 bolts and a lot of that silicone gasket sealer, when the piece arrives tommorrow. I hope it F'in works!

:smile: I didn't snap one off. I got the plate on and sealed the whole plate with High heat and pressure silicone gasket rtv. That worked well. Its all sealed off and no leaks. But my idle is still at 900rpm. Instead of 750rpm like it was before i ripped the AC&CV off. I tried turning the idle down on the throttle body and it couldc't be screwed down tighter anymore. I can turn the idle up though.Does anyone know how to get my idle back down????

Try the idle mixture screw in combination with the idle mixture screw on the throttle body. :wink:



It should look like the black thing in the lower right corner of this picture:



It should be by your air box (or where it was if you have done your air intake).

Question

I just noticed my bottom pulley has several other groves. (I'm not running anything by the alternator and water pump).



Question: Can I just but a dual alternator pulley and run dual belts?

Hmm... No experience there myself, but I'd assume that the grooves in the aftermarket dual kit may require different size (length and possibly width) belts, especially if they are underdrive pullies, and they may run the belts at different distances apart than the stock pullies. If one of the belts runs off center:

it will wear out prematurely.



I'd go with a complete dual bet kit if that's what you want. No use in short-cutting something like the belt drives. :smile:

Got a note back from MAZDATRIX... yep It will work. A Dual Alternator pulley is all I need. So I will be ordering that. Since I'm not running the airpump I didn't want the water pump to slip, or risk throwing the belt.
