My friends pulley belts are squeeking like a byatch. he said he has adjusted them as far as they will go, and it still squeeks. i remember reading a while back that a lot of you guys have this problem. can he get some different belts that wont squeek? anything he can do to it? thanks a lot for any suggestions.

The Bando belt(P/S and A/C) that came with the pulley was squeeking like a mother. I went to Napa and got a belt from them. It's a Napa belt but Gates makes it for them. I noticed the belt is a lot thicker than the bando and fits better in the grooves....way better quallity belt. So far, it's fixed the problem...keeping my fingers crossed.
