Post subject: | Squeak after waterpump install |
My waterpump bearing blew when I was on the road. I replaced the waterpump and thermostat after my full-scale battle with the clutch fan. When everything was reinstalled and working nice and peachy, there was a squeak. I'm not entirely sure it's the belt, I'm thinking I might've overtightened one of the tensioner pulleys. Any help would be great. |

back the tensioner pully off and retorque it, or loosen the belt and make sure they spin freely if not, prev. statement if the squeek started and went away the belt or a pully was probably just wet and it slipped a little when the ac compressor kicked on |

Did you clean the pulleys before replacing the belt? Grease on under the belt/on the pulleys can cause a squeak. |
