littleitaly1990 Posted February 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 just a sqeaking sound....I really couldn't tell you what kind, just a loud squeaking sound. Quote A vitrolic, megalomaniacal sadistic psychopath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleitaly1990 Posted February 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 (edited) It squeaks more when I rev...If that helps ...also when I first installed it, and reved everything to test it up, it only squeaked a little on the startup but stopped. When I started to actually drive home, it started squeaking a lot so I immediately went back to the driveway Edited February 3, 2008 by littleitaly1990 Quote A vitrolic, megalomaniacal sadistic psychopath.

zaxfire69 Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 Have you tried to not tighten your belt super tight. Sometimes they can be to tight. Also your pully might be rubbing the inside of your case. I would have to be where you are to determine that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
