horendous squeking
horendous squeking
every time i start my car up it starts squeking and squaking.. i have no idea what it is.. sounds belt related.. when it warms up or the car is moving above 10mph it seems to go away
ok well when stuff gets cold everything contracts so it could be ur belt is pulling to tightly or ur tensinor is not pulling tight enough. u should loosen the tensinor and let it retighten and see if ti still squeeks
if so you can use a parafin wax candle and run it on the belt for a few rotations( this will help renew a worn out belt and help it get grip onto the metal).
you can get ur alternator tested and see if it is showing up bad if it is it could be the bearings in the alternator going out.
you can get a Stethoscope ( doctors use to check ur heart beat) and put it up to each individual pully and see where the suqeeking is comming from that will give u a better idea of what could be going rong and what needs to be replaced to fix the squeeking. CAUTION: be carefull when doing this to not get it caught up in the belt or any other moving parts.
