Summary
Dear Tom and Ray: My husband and I recently purchased a new car. My husband refuses to run the air-conditioning in heavy stop-and- go traffic or if we are sitting in the parked car. When I ask him what the reason is, he says that since the compressor for the air- conditioning is belt-driven, if there is no airflow into the engine, the car will overheat. So I'm wondering why I see everyone else sitting in their nice, cool cars with the windows up, but their cars aren't overheating. He has been this way with all of his vehicles. We have a vacation coming up with a 12-hour drive. I'm worried about long, HOT construction delays. Is he right -- should I continue to silently melt in 90-degree weather? Or can we turn on the darn AC?
