Is my belt tensioner going bad?
Hi
I have i squeling sound on cold starts that goes away when the engine has been warmed up.
I removed the fan belt and started the car and the squeling sound went away.
I gues its my belt tensioner thats makes the squeling since it had a lot of rust on the back of it. It can also be moved a little from side to side, but still seems to be turning fine. Is it suposed to turn very easy or should the wheel be tight when turning it?
Im sure its not the alternator pulley after reading a lots of post on this forum.
Could it be the belt tensioner or do i need to look somewhere else?
