it wouldn't cause any harm to pull the belt for a pass. jsut make sure the battery is fuly charged and that all electric accessaries are turned off. i would only suggest doing this if you have some friends around to push the car up so that you can wait as absolutely long as possible before having to start it.
thanks tim! i was actually thinking of going the electric waterpump route one day, but for $500 some odd dollars or whatever it is, i think I'll wait on that
