Hey all, Well, I thought that replacing the belt fixed it. But no. This morning, I went out to start it up and there's that nasty metal-to-metal noise again. I think now it's getting worse. As it warms up the metal-to-metal noise goes away to be replaced by a new high-pitched whine that is proportional in loudness to engine rpm. Luckily my spare alternator will be arriving shortly. I'l lbe sure to keep it in the van at all times! Sean
