i just put that for the subject so it wasnt OT.

i just got a 200/125a alt from iraggi. i hooked it up and i wired it with big 3. when i hooked it up i did get a little antifreeze on the belts. the alternator is making squealing noises sometimes when i turn on the car, and sometimes when i pump the system up with and without touching the gas pedal. I know that the belt is tight because its a self tensioner. Does anyone know how to fix this?

sounds like the tensioner is not putting the right amount of pressure on the belt. Is the pulley the same size as the stock one?

james, the pully on the new alt is smaller. about 3/4 the size of the stock one i think.

so you think its not putting enough pressure on the belt? is that be a reason im still not gettin my voltage to stay up?

how do i fix this, if its a self tensioner?

change pulleys, I have had the same trouble on alts, If its a self tensioner it needs the pulley changed, or a half inch shorter belt!
