Belt squealing

[Harley Butler]

Currently have a belt squealing I know for fact it's my blower belt I am running a nationals alternator and I did put the correct size spacer in it I did change the tensioner pulley all the idles. I didn't notice if I put a little soap and water on the belt it goes away for a little bit I'm starting to think just A junk belt ?

Some brands squeak, even a new belt after only a few hundred miles and heat cycles. Switch brands or maybe you just need a new belt as an old belt can squeak too.

Ive had luck by taking the belt off and flipping it around. This was just a cold squeak...always went away once warm. Oh and Id try just water. Never used soap before but I wouldnt think that residue would help

Like Malcolm said sometimes just a new belt is the best/only fix.
