2G Annoying belt squealing

[Bluecifer361]

I’ve tried googling this with no direct answers or I’m wording it wrong. so if their is 100 threads on this I’m sorry. At idle the car won’t do it, if I rev it up the car won’t do it, but if I’m in gear rolling and give it gas the accessories belts make squealing noises. the belts look good they feel tight I’m not sure how to tell if it’s to tight, but they are definitely tight. so would this mean it’s one of the pulleys? Can I spray wd40 in it to help? I’ve never had a car do this believe it or not that it wasn’t just a loose belt.

That's good. 1g and 2g brackets are different. You have a 2g 7 bolt?

Tip: Put a washer under the long bolt head (bolt you're ordering) to keep it from popping out of bracket while tensioning (turning it).

Yep. Sounds typical for accessory bearing going bad. Recommend loosening the belt(s) and hand-spinning the accessories to feel for how easily and smoothly they spin. One will probably feel gritty or rough. Alternator is most likely culprit.

I too have the same problem at low RPMs too. New, tight (Gator) belts don't seem to make any difference. Once I get moving, squealing stops. It appears to be worse on cooler mornings. Needless to say, it's quit embarrassing.
