Entfernen der "Frisbee" (Das Ding auf der Wapu)

[Eike]

Moin Leute,

die C4 hat ja von ?1988-91? so eine Scheibe auf der Wasserpumpe sitzen. Ist nicht nur schwer, sondern stört auch beim Schrauben. Im CF.com habe ich folgendes dazu gefunden:

The frisbee was originally installed to help dampen the engaging and disengaging effects of the A/C compressor. Engineers felt it was necessary after GM changed the A/C compressor design in about '88. However, it proved to be ineffective and GM stopped installing it after about '91 (I think) even though the A/C compressors stayed the say.

So ultimately, even GM realized it was useless and a waste of time to install it.

I've pulled the one off of my '89 and found no difference in the functioning of the A/C system at all. Although I also haven't really noticed any significant improvement in horsepower, I'm glad it's off - I was amazed how much that thing actually weighed!

For what it's worth and the effort involved, I'd say pull it.

Wenn das wirklich so ist, dürfte nichts dagegen sprechen das Ding wegzulassen wenn's keine Probs mit der A/C gibt ... was meint Ihr denn dazu?
