Re: 3.1 v6

Sounds like your smog pump has frozen causing the belt to rub over a smog pulley that does not turn. I assume the V6 cars still have the same sort of serp belt setup - if so the smog pump can be deleted out of the system by simply changing belt length and rerouting the serp belt - your answers are here: https://www.thirdgen.org/serpentine
