I just bought a 95 Taurus and it keeps snapping the belt needs new ac compressor but we turn on unit can bypass without removing it?

You can't reliably bypass the A/C compressor on a 1995 Taurus without removing it. The serpentine belt runs directly through the compressor pulley. If the compressor is seized (which is likely why the belt is snapping), the belt will continue to break even if you try to route it around the pulley. The seized compressor is putting too much strain on the belt.

Trying to bypass it by just removing the belt from the compressor pulley will likely lead to:

* Belt slippage: The belt won't have enough tension to properly drive the alternator, power steering pump, and other components. This will cause inconsistent power and potential damage to those components.

* Further damage: A seized compressor can damage the belt tensioner or other parts of the system.

The best and safest solution is to replace the A/C compressor. While it might seem like a hassle, running the car without a properly functioning system is more likely to result in more expensive repairs down the line. Trying to jury-rig a bypass is not recommended.
