just recently installed a 130A mustang alt in my truck and first thing in the morning when I start it i get a lower volt reading and belt slipping from my alt.
runs about 13. at the same mileage point of driving it will "tone out" to a high pitch and then stop, at the same time my volt gauge will jump up to 14.7ish.
the belt is a new standard 7 dollar belt, I have used belt conditioner with no luck.
the alt charges all the time so why does it squeel at startup only?
how do i stop it from slipping?
pulley have some shine, I did rough them up with some sandcloth dont really think that did anything.
are there some fancy belts out there that would be better?
could this belt have been sitting on the shelf and dried out?(dry climate here)
not only is it embarasing but I seem to see the same people every morning on my commute and feel like a D bag for not being able to stop the squeel.
