Hello list, The new timing chain is on and the engine seems fine after starting instantly. Thanks to all for the advice. At idle all is well, but as I rev up the engine, the belts (I think) gradually start to squeal. I put soap on the belts, which didn't help, as well as a soapy water solution, which also didn't help. I can depress the belts about 1/2" and are about at tight as I thought I could get them. Any suggestions to get rid of the squeals? thanks Bruce S __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
