a/c delete-what to do with leftover hoses?
My a/c compressor clutch seized and I replaced it with a bypass pulley. I was wondering what to do with the leftover hoses, electrical connectors and other a/c parts. Are they safe to leave in place?

yea why not....just tape up the connectors good and would be a good idea the throw to dielectric grease in them to keep them from corroding in case you ever went back

I would have liked to have done the OBA but my compressor pulley seized tight the other night. It had been making a lot of noise for a few weeks. I started it to go home the other night and I got nice fan belt squealing and a bunch of white smoke. I shut it off right away and I feel lucky that it didnt run long enough to cook my new serp belt off. The belt still looks good.
