tighten belt..
UPDATE: GOT it sorted.
First off mark with sharpy position of alt. Anyone that may come across this post be careful for oil contol valve when attempting to pry. Its a round thingy with wires going to it above top alt area. Luckily I noticed this and did not pry there.after some research i found out what is was. Others have damaged this part by accidently prying on it. Do not over pry/tighten belt...I could have taken out much more slack but decided on 4/5mm to start. I actually backed off what originally pried forward. What I did was loosen top bolt and then used small jack handle.Fenagle around before prying to find best position. After moving forward about 4 MM and tightening whirring noise is gone. I tightened first thing before even starting car so as to replicate when it did make a noise. Hope this helps and sorry for spamming board. __________________________________________________ _______ I had alt replaced last year seems belt may be lose,squeeks cold and sometimes just randomly I read you loosen top bolt/nut? then pry. I loosened top one and pryed but nothing. I dont want to break anything....any suggestions or tricks? Maybe tips on how to pry it,and what with? The car is going into shop thurs to tighten drums but figured I may tighten belt myself. Also car makes wirring sound cold start only....after warmup not a peep. Probaly going to get mechanic to change waterpump while he has it as i have a new one on hand. Last edited by Pinchlite; 04-04-2021 at 05:41 PM. |
