I have the serpentine belt set on my 69 C10, it started out nice and quiet now it sounds like two cats killing each outher when I start it, I thought it was too tight so I loosed up the belts and it worse, they feel tight to me like I would adjust a single v-belt but squeel, I hate to use belt dressing that styuff is a mess on my new engine. Sould I tighten then up a bit more or could it be something else causing the squeel, I also can decide if its comming form the alt ot PS pump side.
