Hey all,
Anyone else have a problem with belt squeal on the 4.0 in a BII? I have so far replaced both idler pulleys, the tensioner assy 2 NAPA belts and now a Gates belt and the water pump. I thought I had it whipped with the Gates belt, nope since it got cold I'm getting the squeal at start up and until I am driving and get the RPMs up to about 1500 again. Once the truck warms up it seems to be less of an issue. I have all accessories on this motor. Any thoughts?
