Well i was driving during heavy rain and my belts make noice when i turn the ac on. As soon as i tun it off it goes away but the wierd thing i checked which belt it was and its my alternator belt that squeaks really bad. does this only rain or cold weather. Thought today my ac and power steering belt blew
the v belt for the 420a engine on my 1995 eagle talone went off while i was driving during the rain on the freeway DOH! well this is a recap of what happened and what can be done to fix the noice the squeaks that is. i have done the followoing.
1. replace altornator belt this has been attempeted to be tension but stil squeaks in rain conditons
2. replaced V belt which is for the ac and power steering. this had been tension to specs
questions
1.for the alternator belt how can i make it stop squeaking and if im not at specs how much does it cost to get it tensioned correctly.
2. During rainy conditions is it normal to squeak? If so why?
take into cosideration my lancer does not squeak when it rains hard.
3.Why does it squeak on dry conditons when i turn my ac on and the belts squeak? what can it be?
sorry if this are noob questions but i tried to keep my car quite and it emberasing when it squeaks when theres a cop behind you
.
thanks for any input.
