| Check for moisture from a leaking water pump. If no leak, spray with water bottle - if it squeals more, it means belts is slipping. If water makes noise go away, it's a misaligned pulley. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30

| If you have metal idler bullies, with engine off slip off the belts and turn idlers bu hand. Replace the ones that do not turn properly. | |

| well i opened the hood in the sunlight for the first time since this started and i imediately saw the problem. the a/c pulley had metal shavings on it! i just replaced it last summer but with a USED ac compressor. wont do that again so as soon as possible i got to buy a new ac compressor | |

| Just to be sure, detension the belt and try moving the AC compressor on its mounts. If it's worked loose, it can cause the problem you're having. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30

| At least 3. The AC pump is mounted to a cast iron bracket, which is mounted to the block. Check the bolts connecting the pump to the bracket. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30
