It can be tough to diagnose if belt squealing on a serpentine belt is from poor belt tension or a bad pulley or worn water pump. This is a simple method to isolate the problem so you don't waste money on unnecessary parts.

Nice vid. Just wanted to point out a couple of quick points/tips: 1. Belts are usually not the root cause of noise. Of course they can be, but often people replace that first, a new belt is quiet, but a couple thousand miles later the squeal is back 2. Lots of cars these days use decoupling pulleys on their alternators, and they typically can fail after 70-100k miles. Very quick and easy check is to pop the pulley cap and check for red dust, or remove belt and see if it is hard to turn. If it needs replacement the pulley is half the cost of a new alternator and typically factory alternators are of much higher quality than $150 aftermarket ones. Save your original if it still works and just replace pulley. 3. If alternator is good usually its usually an idler or tensioner. If you've had the squeal a long time, odds are extra vibration/misalignment has put stress on these parts, if they have a lot of miles on them already (100k plus) you might want to replace all of them at this point. Idlers are cheap, tensioners are usually a little more.

@mattbovee25879 жыл бұрын
Very helpful video. Thanks. A couple of things to note based on my recent experience with it -if there's a lot of crap on the tensioner, idler or other flat-surfaced pulley wheels, that could be the source of the squealing, too. -if there is stuff on the flat surfaced pulley wheels, depending on what it is spraying water on them can cause the belt to slip off (as happened w/my old Dodge van). Once the belt came off I shut 'er down, then cleaned the wheels and belt. Inspected the belt (AOK), then used soap, water and a cloth for it (no solvents that might degrade the belt and nothing abrasive that might cut or scratch it). My old van had so many spots of dried grease, road tar, and God knows what else on the flat-surfaced pulley wheels (idler, tensioner, and water pump in my vehicle) I used an abrasive sponge, soap, windex, and ultimately gasoline and a small wire brush that allowed me to get in there and clean despite the small working space. Didn't quit until the wheels were smooth and dry to the touch When the wheels and belt were smooth and clean I coaxed the belt back into place, minus looping over the tensioner. My van needed a metric wrench (15) to fit the tensioner. You might want to check that you HAVE the right size wrench in advance, especially if you're a "shade tree" mechanic, like me. To work the tensioner at the same time as you finagle the belt into place you'll probably also want a cheater bar for extra leverage. I did. Otherwise it's tough to get enough leverage when leaning/laying across the engine to reach the belt at the tensioner. You may want to have the belt behind the tensioner wheel before you start, too (between the wheel and the engine), so that your wrench/lever isn't in the way when you want to slip the darned belt on. Once cleaned and back on, I bumped the starter a couple of times to ensure the belt was seated properly, verified that, then fired 'er up. Most, but not all, of the squealing was gone. Just a chirrup or three. One final tip - when I got out the squirt bottle to test the pulleys again, a very VERY light shot on the idler wheel (so I could hit near the flat side of the belt) caused the last little squeaks to go away. So another use for your method is to allow just enough slippage for the belt to seat and align itself!

We had the same issue on our '91 Ranger 4.0. We had replaced the tensioner and that helped a couple of years ago. We replaced the power steering pump today and the squealing was back. I went through various forums online and remember going through all of the same answers that were there last time. Some of the solutions seemed really unlikely and, frankly, a waste of time. I found your video and liked your logical approach and trouble shooting. Following your suggestion, we checked the alignment of all the pulleys and noted the power steering pump pully was about 1/4 inch out. We used a pulley puller and adjusted the pulley forward until it seemed to be aligned and crossed our fingers as we started the Ranger and the horrible squealing was gone. The truck never sounded better. No belt conditioner, tensioners, expensive belt, or cheap ones. Thank you for taking your time to do the videos. You helped me to look at a solution that I probably would not have found otherwise. Excellent!

@Paper, I agree with your assessment and I am confident that your squealing problem will disappear with tension. One other possible cause of this by the way is a small dripping of coolant on a pulley or belt when engine is at rest. The belt squeaks briefly upon startup but soon stops because while running the drip is no longer on the belt for whatever reason (fan blows it, whatever).

That's a nice explanation of an old school technique. It makes sense that if the sound is from lateral slipping of the belt, lubrication with water would improve it. And it also makes sense that inadequate tension from a failing tensioner would worsen with the lubrication of water spray.

I had this issue a month ago and performed some poor diagnostic work. The belt had been replaced 2.5 years ago and I cavalierly assumed it wasn't the belt. In addition, the idler pulley was replaced a year ago and I eliminated that. So, I pressed the end of a hammer handle against the tensioner pulley and the tone of the squeak was altered. Hence, I replaced the tensioner. The problem did not go away. Next, I sprayed the belt and the squeak dissipated. Oops. This time, I purchased a quality Gates belt, not the $17.99 model I purchased last time. I could have returned the $39.99 tensioner, but the truck is 18 years old, and I left it in. Great video.

BTW, today, was it's 1st day on the road, undergoing driving trials, as it were, prior to his 1st big 'shake down cruise'. I haven't replaced any of the considerable skid plates, waiting to be sure nothing is leaking (brake lines, gas lines, oil lines to the new radiator, differentials, transfer case, etc....)

I watched this video a few times last year before I put it in storage when I was trying to diagnose a belt wear issue on my LT1 Camaro. Just recently subscribed though as you can tell by all my recent comments. I was going through belts every 200 kms or so. They were wearing near the front of the belt (towards rad) about one rib length. The water test indicated a misalignment but because not all my pulleys had the same lip thickness, a straight edge wasn't very helpful and it was hard to compare smooth surface pulleys to ribbed pulleys. I did buy a gates laser alignment tool and everything looked perfectly aligned. I checked multiple times. I did notice a new wear pattern on my power steering pulley that was approximately 1 rib wide and it seemed to have a tiny bit of play in it. I could move the pulley back and forth a small amount. So I hate to admit it, but I took an educated guess and installed a new pump and pulley. There's about 100kms on it and I don't see any wearing on the front of the belt like last time. If I'm wrong, I'm thinking a thermal camera would show excessive heat where the pulley is misaligned. They're used for tire misalignment, so my logic is it should work for front engine accessories.

I've been looking for an video that was actually informative on squeezing belts. I bought 2 new ones, and finally took it to a dealer on vacation because I couldn't stand the squeal anymore. Their answer, buy our belt. Thanks for the video! Going to work on getting rid of this squeal.

Your right, that squealing is more annoying than a liberal, but certainly not more annoying than Trump. I'd hammer a chopstick into my ear, before I'd listen to Trump.

Jerry Callan this video was uploaded way before Trump. not every conservative supports Trump. use your skull

Exceptional video. Videos like this save people thousands trust me. In Canada if you took you vehicle to these crooks they would force you to change everything associated with your timing belt. Thank you so much !
