Subject:      where is my squealing coming from?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

The squealing is audible at idle, but really picks up when you hit the
engine.  Directly tied to rpms.  I got out a hose to isolate the noise.
Could have sworn it was coming from around the alternator.  Tried
tightening the belt (it is a few weeks old so I didn't replace) and
swapping the alternator with an extra I had on hand.  No change.  Any ideas?

Thanks as always...
