Hi Cheese, I actually did that back in March when it got warmer. I checked the pulleys and the tensioners for both play and movement when I replaced the belt.
Earlier today, I started the engine and listened closely, no whine while idling.
Turned the steering wheel lock to lock, both right and left - no whine.
Revved the engine a few times while in park and in neutral - no whine.
I did not go out for a drive due to other obligations (Honey Do List) but I will try to get out tomorrow and see what's up.
Would it be worth while to plug in the duramatic. Would it show any transmission problems?
Thanks
