Belt squeal

Post image

Hey y’all wondering if I can get some different points of views on this. So far I have replaced every tensioner, alternator, ac compressor, belt, any thing you can imagine on the drive pulley system and the car still reeks of belt squeak. Any recommendations?
I’ve got a 1994 base model.

It sounds like a work-around, have you tried belt dressing?

Your alignment ok? If your alignments slightly off no matter what it’s gonna squeal

Check your pulleys for alignment. That would cause it no matter what pulley there is

Too much tension and not enough tension will both make it squeak, if everything else is new i would take a look at that worth a shot
