Re: Alternator squealing

ouch ouch ouch...


do not keep tightening it... if its already within the standard deflection something else is squealing.. not the alternator belt!

You can test it by loosening it first.. loosen the belt first...


here is my storry. Every time i pulled into krispyKreeme my belt would scream and whine.. i kept tightening, every one of the dsm'rs was like tighten that belt for once!!!

it didn't go away no matter what i did. up until i went to do balance shaft elim. my timing belt was soo tight!! i had to do the timing replacement all over again after 14k miles.. we had hard time taking off all the puleys and belts.. it didn't start squealing until like 10k miles later tho


Did you do timing belt job recently? or within last year.
