Re: alternator squeal.?
You guys are funny. Where can I buy blinker fluid?
Just tighten the belt or replace the belt if you don't know the age. Trust Halon on this one.

It's a good thing you drained it. The seal quality in the 1G alternator coolant passages is quite poor so power steering fluid would definitely cause some damage.

Re: alternator squeal.?
You guys are mean...
It is obvious his turbo bearings are going out. This is causing an extra draw on the system where the altenator can not compensate for.
He needs a new car.

Re: alternator squeal.?
I have a colt I'll trade you. It's a fixer upper, but probably easier to fix my colt then to fix your huge problem. Let me know.

Thats 1 bottle.
Full refill is $2.25 a bottle, you need 3.
Honestly, he just needs to tighten his belt, should be fine.

Where is my custom title?

Re: alternator squeal.?
Now I think you all have it wrong. It isn't the fluid... It has to do with the swamp gasses refracting off the 3rd moon of Venus...
also ...
Elvis, if you checked your muffler bearings once and a while you wouldn't have any trouble making the 1.21 gigawats needed.

Re: alternator squeal.?
Check the Crank on the alternator. If it moves in and out than you crank walked your alternator. You will need to replace the crank walked alternator. If you are unsure you can take the alternator to Checkers or Autozone and have them check the crank play. Just tell the that I Am Sofa King Retodda sent you.
