If you've done a 3G 1 wire alternator swap, how did you deal with the belt squeal?
I've replaced the belt twice, cleaned the pulleys and gotten the belt as tight as I can get it.
Only squeals on start up and only for a couple of seconds. But, it's loud and annoying.
I can put a double pulley on the alternator, but I'm going to be adding power steering and will need the second crank pulley. So that's only a short time solution.
I do have a smaller diameter crank pulley I can add that's used on factory p/s, but I'm using a Borgerson pump and I don't know about the alignment and what effect it will have on the pump speed (slower) if it does align.
Ok, your turn.
Thanks
