When the fan belt broke on my Z car (defective) I drove it ten miles using pulse and eoc.
The air flow across the water pump driven fan was enough to keep the coolant moving with no belt to drive the alt or pump and fan.

It was actually cooler when I finished than it would have been with the belt working.
