Alright so the best way to describe the noise is when you have a squeeky belt or idler tensioner pulley bearing etc. So thats what I did today changed the belt checked everything out and I still can here the noise I also took off the belt and let the truck run and still hear the noise?

Truck has 109000 miles


So what could it be its not a knock or a tic its a squeel.

does the power steering pump run of a gear from the motor?

I had my lift pump, fuel filter and fuel shut off valve changed could they have installed something improperly?

Seems like the noise is coming from the middle of the motor maybe a little lower hard to tell.



Thanks for the help

 

prolly a dry bearing on the idler or tension sheave as some call it, its a sealed bearing so it cant be greased, mine went out around 120k

 

Thanks for the reply that's what I thought it was and had bought the idler however I took the belt off and let the truck run with no belt and the noise is still there
