Made a change to car...seems safe enuff
So after having intermitent squeeks from the pullies for a while...last night about midnight-thirty...as I am gfetting started to come home...that sqeek became a scream liek a banshee...
and I figured out that the cleaning I did of the area with the brake cleaner must have had a negative effect on the bearing in the pulley...
I had some trouble before with rubbing tensioner but that was an easy fix...so I pulled the ASP one off and put the Stillen plastic pulley on ..
it is running very quiet now..and I am glad...it was embarrassing as hell to have the car make so much racket.
so I need to search around for more bearings for the pulley now...I will look thru the posts later to find them...I know they are here...

Well much to my dismay the noise returned so I checked the tension on the belt and found the source of the problem is not a pulley after all it is oil from the return hose I surmise is seeping out and getting on belt...
therefore the noise is the oiled belt slipping all over and getting on my last nerve...to clean it and check it obviously requires another blower removal...ugh...at least I am getting good and fast at it.
