ok - this thing is driving me absolutely crazy!! I'm at my whits ends and about to push this thing out into the alleyway if i dont get some closure asap. I can't for the life of me get the belt to stop squeeking. The belt began to squeek shortly after i had purchased the thing (Maybe a year or so ago, i dont recall exactly). The belt was a little dry so i replaced it. a few months down the road it began to squeek again. i tightened it up and it went away. now its squeeking, again. the belt is in perfectly fine working order. i took a wire wheel and hit all the pulleys so they're clean and unbrazed, they all spin fine with no resistance and the alignment appears to be spot on. i've adjusted the thing with the engine running and no matter which way i go when the motor is cold it squeeks anywhere from mildly annoying to wanting to get my shotgun out and blast a hole thru the radiator. i'm at a loss. anybody else have this problem? its freaking embarrasing driving down the road sometimes. FYI - it goes away when its really warm out. maybe i got a bunk belt? it appears to be fine. FYI i feel like an idiot making a post about a damn fan belt. ugh......lol
