Do you route the belt for the Water pump to run in the right direction when you delete the air pump, Ac, P/S. This has been messing with me and my mind is hurting. Does anybody have a diagram or draw one and scan it for me. This is buggin the **** outta me , i bought the tensioner delete from Trickpro. And any way i do it the Water pump is rotating in the wrong direction. PLEASE HELP

Try this site,

The only way I think you can run a belt with such little accessories is to get an A/C Delete pulley.

You near Melbourne Mike?

If so, why didn't you ask TJ how to route it?

reverse the tensioner. take it apart, take the spring out, drill a new hole on the other side of the housing and fit the spring back in there. now instead of the tensioner pushing down on the belt, it will now push up. the spring actually works in the opposite direction it was designed to, but it's worked for me for a couple years now(along with others). it might take a couple tries to get the hole in the correct place. if need be, i could go look at where i have mine drilled.
