Chirping SC belt
#1

This is now the second time this has happened to me: A newly installed Gates SC belt chirps at start-up (sounding much like the din of cicadas) and the sound eventually fades as the engine warms up. Problem easily solved by replacing belt with a NAPA belt. The NAPA belts appear to be made from a softer compound and the cross-section of the belt seems to be thicker. I just swapped the belts today. After 6 months of startup chirping, I couldn’t stand it anymore.
