s/c belt squeak. too tight or loose? Sun, 20 June 2004 12:34 Go to previous message
fridays, finally decided to change the s/c waterpump belt and aircon alt belt on friday at last, old one had major cracks and even few hole thru it

story is i tightened the belt up test drove it = ok. drove it all sat = ok.

comes sunday a belt noise at higher rpm. did a few test in 1st, 2nd, 3rd gear it starts to squeak from ~5500rpm onwards. stopped by, at idle gave it a rev and no noise, so it must be the s/c belt, since its the only thing which turns on with load. everytime i jab the accelerator during driving it duz a slight squeak aswell

neway duz it sound like s/c belt. if so is it too loose or is it too tight atm? its so hard to adjust this belt since the longest bit to feel is still to short and it feel same tightness as u tighten it up, which is damn tight

ne opinion? i like to tightened it up bit more to c but not sure if its overtightened atm and i might damage somethin as i tightened it more

also am i loosing boost if its squeakin like this?
