Bearing went out on the cone of supercharger 1992 buick park ave can supercharger be disconected and car still run good if so how?
Orpzs
yes it better to disconnect the supercharger cause metal shavings will go into the motor and will have to replace the whole motor, you can get the charger rebuilt for around $250-$500 be sure to get a high rpm bearing.
And to bypass: I have just done it !! I used a shorter belt... AutoZone Duralast Multi-V belt Part Number 795K6.. which is basically a 79 1/2 inch belt. I routed the belt exactly as the diagram shows, just skipping the route around the Supercharger. I took it to a mechanic I trust afterward (even though he said it couldn't be done) so he could take a look and make sure I wasn't going to blow the motor. He said that all his references showed no danger, just that the motor would be "a little less peppy". 2 days and 100 miles and everything seems to be running along just fine.
A side note I learned though.. there is a metal hose that the belt may rub against. I believe it is the Power Steering line... I just lifted very gently on it until it was clear (maybe 1/4 inch). Like I said so far, so good.

If the supercharger is leaking on a 1996 Buick Riviera can it still be driven?
96 doesnt have the supercharger so yes What made you think it is a 1996? It's pretty tough to mis-identify a SuperCharger?
Can you still run the engine if the belt on the supercharger breaks?
If the belt only drives the supercharger, you should still be able to run it, but expect a drop in performance. Have it repaired as soon as possible

Volkswagon offered a Golf GT in Europe that was known as a twincharger. It featured a centrifugal supercharger designed for low-end torque and a turbocharger.
