couple of problems
Posted: October 8th, 2004, 8:58 pm
Hey everybody. Like the topic says I need a little help. First off I have a 92 RS and the belt squeals like crazy everytime I use the vents(my AC doesnt work). Also, when it is squealing it seriously affects my engines power and acceleration. If I turn the fan off the squealing stops, car goes again. I have checked my belts, even used dressing on them. When I check under the hood it sounds like the squaling is coming from the alternator. Could this be the bearing or pulley on the alt, and if so how could I check?
Second, My friend said yesterday that he saw blue smoke coming out of my car. I just did an oil change on Saturday, and I know I am losing oil somewhere. I checked later on that day and didnt see any smoke, but Im thinking its leaky rings. Is there any way that I can check the rings without tearing the engine apart? I at first thought valve cover so I am going to clean my bay tommorow and check it later on. Thanks for any help.
Later,
D
