Belt squeel

Post by SpatialTerror »

so i dropped the klze in my car. after some little tuning a and rixing up its finally a daily driver. but when i had the k8 i had a belt squeel. tried everything to get it to stop. and now it does it on my klze. i figured out its something electrical. because it only happens when my chargeing system goes under a load. when i hit the brakes all my lights flash when the tail lights turn on. same with headlights, and turning on the heater. anyone know what it is? or what to do?

i had this problem where when i turned on my hazard lights my rpm gauge would bounce up and down in accordance with the lights.. i have a servicable? battery and added some water to it and the problem went away.

+1. did you bring your old alternator over? if the problem pre-existed the engine, then it's not (or pretty unlikely) to be any pulley on the engine. either that or you consistently don't tension your belts right :P

oh.. and squealing belt from low coolant...? :confused2:
