Default Squealing...

(change name of thread?)


So I've developed a squeak/squeal over the last few days, and It still does it when the belt is not on the car.

I was just wondering if there was a list of stuff I could check or probable cause for this...

I kinda wanted to keep the motor in running condition so please help slightly quickly...

Thanks, David

Why wouldn't it? I wouldn't do it for long because its running off the battery and not the alternator, and its not spinning the water pump... but anyone?

Nosir, automatic fml. Does it at idle and gets worse as RPM increase, kinda scared to see at what RPM it stops, if it does...
