77902, Squeeling belt & Burning smell
Posted by JEMLine16, Jul-20-04 12:58 PM
ok guy's here's my problem I just got my drive belt, bracket and pullys replaced, now sometimes when I turn the steering wheel I hear a loud squeel and there is a burning smell. I think it might be the belt stretched out and needs to be adjusted, but I wanted to see what you guy's think. Thanks for any help you guy's can give me.

this really has been addressed 194872917438917 times, so you could use the SEARCH or just take a 14mm to the tensioner bolt and tighten your belt. the belts stretch after they've been installed

The squeeling may be antifreeze leaking on the belt, esp if you are smelling something. Check your overflow tank.

I adjusted the belt and that stoped the squeeking but the burning is still there. I checked and my over flow looks normal.

Check to make sure it's not leaking. Check your radiator hose right there too.
