G B L Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Check the pulley if very polished it could slip under the first load. Also how old is the battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willygee Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 To expand on GBL's comment: a worn battery puts excessive load on your alternator which can add drag on the belt causing a squeal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
