mrwigglezdj Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 well its not the belt or the fan rubing the case, what the problem is, is the bearing that holds the stator in place on the rear of the alt,its a needle bearing, you prob. have a few bearing bad in it thus causeing the noise at idle and above no matter what, i had the same problem with mine unitll i rebuilt it Quote Americas loudest work van2006 iasca heavyweight bassboxing champion at 150.4 db with 60second average TL8 memphis PR15s,12 memphis PR6.5's coax,4 memphis PR 1inch tweets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrwigglezdj Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 you shouldnt have to do that, with tighting it so much youre makeing the other pullys get off axis and wearing out the bearings , the reason the sound is gone is because you have so much pressure on that one side that it cant squeak... id get it checked Quote Americas loudest work van2006 iasca heavyweight bassboxing champion at 150.4 db with 60second average TL8 memphis PR15s,12 memphis PR6.5's coax,4 memphis PR 1inch tweets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 i seen you said you tried to turn the pulley as best you could. you should be able to turn the pulley by hand when the belt is off. if not, you got a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
