Engine Belt is off - Can I drive? 900 1994

Of the three drive belts
1) outer most belt goes right to the AC Compressor
2) middle belt goes right and up to Alternator
3) inner belt goes left to Power Steering and to water pump.

OK to drive with out 1
With out belt 2 battery will eventually die with no harm.
Without belt 3 will have no power steering and engine will start heating up due to no waterpump working - DO NOT DRIVE WITHOUT

Might as well have all three belts replaced. You can wait, order them and do them yourself after reading the FAQ if you are inclined.
