yesterday i was driving my father's 82 malibu station wagon (the shaggin wagon ;o)), cause my 89 was in the shop getting a new alternator (many thanks to eric @ viking).
i too, was driving in VA, in the billion degree weather. i was on my way back to the tysons corner area from springfield, and the ac was working fine, nice and cold. then the car starts squealing. sounds like belt, and then the burning smell starts, so i turn off the ac, and the squealing stops. "GRREEEaaatt". i get off 495 in tysons, and smoke starts to billow out of grill. "SUUUperrr". so i pull into a gas/service station accross from my office, and pop the hood. yup, compressor is spitting smoke. thankfully one of the mechanics at the shop had a tool that i could use to cut off the belt.
lemmee tell you how nice it is to drive home in that weather w/ no a/c, and those fancy "pleather" seats. yummeee.
thanks god i got the 89 back last night.
later,
pete
