Sparks from a/c pulley, screaming belts.

[trevor404]

Hey guys,
So I was driving home and I heard a slight grinding or a kind of hissing noise but only at about 3500 rpm. I opened up my hood and revved up the engine and my a/c compressor pulley was shooting sparks out of it when it was revved to the right speed (again, about 3500 rpm). I pulled the belt off and the a/c compressor clutch is not noticeably hard to move when it is moved by hand and you can't wiggle the pulley around or anything. Any ideas before I spend some money?
Thanks.

Oh, and now the belts scream and screech some of the time but not always.

It could just be the clutch. No way to tell unless you take off the clutch and inspect it. Make sure nothing is stuck between the small clutch gap.
If it's not the clutch, than the compressor is bad.

Yeah, my new clutch came in today so I will be replacing it tomorrow. I also just realized that my a/c doesn't even engage anymore, so I think it is probably something to do with the clutch. Just one of the many thrills of owning an SHO!

You have the Special Edition SHO. When you hit 88mph in third gear, the compressor turns into a flux-capacitor... and the rest is history...... or rather the future.....

LOL I want one...I can go back in time and NOT buy a SHO...Or wait...that would send shockwaves through the Space-Time Continuum.

Haha, I knew there was something special about this one!!

Well, now my car is making a clicking sound from under the dash and it only blows hot air. I have looked around on the site and it seems as if my blend door actuator is broken. I have to take apart my whole dash to fix it. Well winter is coming, maybe I don't need a/c right away...
