    belt issuess

    so basically
    i had a belt squeeling like krazy
    and i thought it was just cold so ignored it...
    cause the squeeling would die as i would start driving

    one day i noticed...
    my remote starter wasn't working
    i would turn it on
    it would run for like 10 secondz
    and then it wud turn off autommatically
    then a few hours later my alternator light comes on in my dash,
    pop my hood and the
    alternator belt
    is shredded to pieces..
    i figured it was ware on it
    seeing it is a dead belt.. by all the cracks

    so i thought the remote starter failed because of alternator failure..



    sooo i changed both belts
    alternator one
    and the other one that goes around the a/c etc.
    and my remote starter starts working fine.


    now in the last few days
    the belt starts squeeling again..
    except alot
    everytime i accelerate..
    when im driving.. slow down a bit.. pulling off
    anykind of moving from stop...
    squeels like krazy and then the squeeling dies off as i drive faster
    now yesterday
    my remote starter is giving the same problem again
    turn it on.. it idles for a bit.. and then the system shuts off..


    any suggestionss?

    um, tighten it again? its not a put it on and done job. it will stretch after a short while of running.
    No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

      i think the tension
      on the
      alternator belt
      izz too tight

      but thankz for the suggestion
