Belt Squeek...

[Grip72]

Ok, when i start my car (this only happens in spring)....the belt squeeks so loud like a motha f***a..anyways, and when i stop at a light it will start to squeek too but then after about 2-3 stops..it will stop for quite awhile. It also stops if i put inmy clutch and give the gas a quiuick push and rev it up.....any ideas how to stop this annoying thing?

have you checked the belt for tighteness ? is it really loose ?

or you have an aftermarket belt. i know sometimes they squeal for no reason.

double check your belt tension, also look to see if the pulley for the alt, p/s,and h2o pump lign up right. if all that checks out o.k. then you might have to put on some belt dressing to stop the squeel. good luck.
