Belt squeal

<< < (2/2)

CapriTypeR:
The belts are a common issue. It seems to be "usually" caused by someone replacing the alternator with a cheaper, "autozone" type alternator. The pulleys on the replacement alternator are the wrong size, and this causes your belts to squeal, or break within days.
We have a replacement belt available that fixes this issue 99.9% of the time. You can call us at 503-919-4227 and order one direct, or we also have them listed on ebay:

Thx Russ, car getting checked out this weekend and will let you know.  Also glad the pods came in. Looking forward to getting it :) Mark.

CapriTypeR:
Mark - Just let me know if you think you'll need a belt!

Again, I apologize for the HUGE delay in getting that pod out...

Hi,
i have also the problem with the noisy belt. i change belt, new alternator bearings and also the pully from the alternator. My last hope is that the hamronic balancer is out of tolerance. Iproble is that i donīt find i new one... have somebody a hint for me where to buy. I try rockauto.com, but i donīt find it there. My Capri is from 1994 with the N/A 1,6 Motor and Automatic gearbox.
Thanks for help
