After I did my top-end rebuild last winter, I heard some screeching for a while once the bus warmed up. Turned out to be the generator rubbing on some bent metal in the fan housing. It wore the metal away and screeches no more. I have a spare doghouse shroud, so I didn't stress out too much about the problem once I figured out what it was. Perhaps when he did the fanbelt thing he moved the generator just enough to cause this. Joe ('71 campmobile) ---------------------------------------------------------- Joseph F.
