Mechman Alternator question

[MikeyB]

Get the right belt on that bisch mang!

Go here and find your belt. Then go here and find the one that is just slightly smaller than your stock one if that's what you want.

My question is now though. How come when I took off the belt and then put it back on the noise was gone for a whole day of driving then came back?

If it was a brand new belt it could have just been breaking in & stretched a little bit.

Na it was the old one. I had the old one on, tried the new one and couldnt get the new one to fit on. Then when I put the old one back on it was fine and then started making the noise.

Bump put on another belt today. We will see how that goes.

belt is just slipping..same happened to me, just put on a smaller belt and perfecto

Ok fixed the belt slip noise for now. But now my alternator is making some funky noises Im starting to loose faith in my mechman alt

HO alt will have a slight whine from what I have noticed.Tighter tolerances on the stator and rotor are usually the cause of this.
