As the title of this thread says. My power steering pulley is squealing like a stuck pig. I'm sure it
Needs to be replaced soon but here's a quick synopsis of the events leading up to this. We were driving yesterday and we threw the alternator belt. No biggie we had just pulled into a casino for the night when it happened and there were more than ample parts stores in the area. Wake up,hit NAPA grab a replacement for all the belts and go change out the damaged belt. Installed the belt in the parking lot fire the coach back up go to pull away and the power steering is screaming bloody murder. Now i never took off the actual power steering belt just the A/C belt to get the alternator belt on. The belt seems to have the right amount of tension but clearly something changed when I installed the new belt. All belts are in there respective grooves. Other than that I'm not really sure what to do.
Thanks JimD
