Use a bit of string or rope to run around all the pulleys without the air con compressor and mark the rope. Measure the length. Most V and flat belts are marked with their size, which is their length in cm. Remember that the compressor pulley may put an angle or bend on the belt for it to run properly and be tensioned properly. If you bypass this, there may be nothing to tighten the belt, or the tensioner may not work as well. You will soon find out if the belt slips, it will squeal like mad.

I doubt anyone knows that off the top of their head. You could run a string through the path you want the belt to take and measure how much string it takes. This will give you an approximate length for the belt -- most parts stores could find one close to that size.

I know autozone sells a bypass pulley for many cars and trucks, and you may be able to get one locally.
good luck!

2006 Pontiac Torrent. What size belt do I need if I bypass a/c compressor and idler pulley on it?

That's not the way that you do it. You remove the AC compressor and install a Bypass Pulley in its place. The belt and routing remain the same.

2005 Dodge Durango 4.7 magnum bypass serpentine belt

the ac is an idler pulley in the system so leaving it out will require a total change of how the belt is fitted and not just needing a shorter belt
remember that the ac pulley bearing can be replaced if faulty and if the ac compressor has failed disconnect the ac clutch wire and there is no need to worry about belts

I need to replace the belt on my 2001 pt cruiser (2.4) can i by pass the ac and what size belt would be needed to do this?

They do not make a different belt, you must by what is a called an AC delete pulley, it bolts where the compressor used to go and you use the same belt. The pulley is mad by a auto parts manufacturer called "DORMAN" contact a local auto parts store like NAPA (Autozone/O'reiley will likely have no clue) for more info. The part is cheap.

I have a 1990 buick lesabre what size belt would I need if I bypass the ac

There is no belt size listed to bypass the pump, non AC and AC equipped cars use the same belt size, in place of the AC compressor they bolt a AC Delete bypass pulley. Many aftermarket companies make these for folks like you, Dorman auto parts manufacturer is one big supplier.

2005 pt cruiser rough idle when ac on

The ac compressor pulls a good number of horses from a 4 cyl engine.
Any minor performance problem is amplified when the ac is running.
You probably have a weak spark plug or wire, or an issue with an injector.
Is the check engine light coming on when it is rough ?

2005 pt cruiser touring edition idles and runs fine until I turn on the AC... Idling with AC on it's very ruff and it cycles through almost stalling and then correcting itself every 5 seconds. Driving...

Blasts Freon out of the compressor? Have you witnessed refrigerant gas being expelled, and if so, from where? Be precise with your description.
Does the AC get cold?

If you're experiencing rough idle when the AC is on, then check the IAC (Idle Air Control) valve and circuit, including looking for any blocked ports under the valve (you'll have to remove the IAC valve).

Also - observe the compressor with AC on to see if the compressor is cycling on/off every few seconds. If yes, then you'll need to have the system checked for proper pressures.
