I don't advise driving it at all with the belt off . It will begin to overheat right away, but won't show on the gauge because the heat is near the valves in the head, and not near the sensor. If you had to, just to hear it when moving, not more than a block. And shut it off right away! No water moving in the motor to cool it with the belt missing.
