    Thank you. Tried the screwdriver trick but couldn't tell on the alternator tool cause the nut rotates too, so the screwdriver rattled back and forth. Tried using a laser thermometer to see if one pulley was hotter, but they were all about the same. Soaked the alternator pulley until it stopped squeeling. Culprit found.

    Just replaced a failed water pump on my ‘04 Suburban 1500. Went ahead and replaced both belts while I had it all open but after getting it all back together and refilled, I still have a bad Chirp (good description of the sound) going on somewhere in there. I hope it’s something simple as the AC tensioner. I’ll give your water trick a try; those squeals always drive me crazy trying to locate, there’s so much noise bouncing around in there that’s it’s tough to pinpoint. Thanks for the helpful video.

  • @spelunkerd

    I know what you mean, you can feel the bad bearing sometimes more dramatically than you hear it. I recently replaced the AC tensioner bearing on my 2000 GM, very similar. In my case I pressed a new bearing in since the tensioner itself was good. Cheaper but a little more work. Nice corvette!

    • @ozzstars_cars
      @ozzstars_cars  6 лет назад

      Yes pressing in a new bearing is the way to go if it's feasible. Thank you Sir!
