No. The battery powers it. The alternator charges the battery. The engine provides the power required to spin the alternator.

That's why fuel efficiency is reduced when you run your A/C.

Seriously though. Get some belt dressing. My old Spitfire used to scream no matter how tightly I made her belts. Belt dressing works.

Is your Dixie wrecked?

this is what the motor spins to get the ac rollin (AC Compressor) But at least you sounded like you knew what the hell you where talking about. If it is any consolation you were right about the belt dressing, it works wonders.

Touching a bar of soap to the belt while it is running will do the same thing.
