    belt squeeling cant get rid of it

    I would get a different belt. What brand is it. I run AC delco with no problems. Definitely loosen the tension on that belt. You are going to damage the accessory bearing if you tighten it too much. I would refer to the Chiltons manual for the proper deflection on belts. Try a little...

    Lou Fusz Toyota of St. Louis

    Where do I start? I try to avoid any repair shops like the plague, considering the number of idiots I have come across when I am forced to take my runner in for tire swaps and the like.

    NTB in St. Louis chipped all 4 of my wheels when performing an alignment. What is wrong with those idiots? What wheels do you have and how did you refinish them? I have the 5 spokes on a 99.
