v6 4runner schreeching engine

Post by joey2389 »

hey guys i have a 92 4runner with a v6 3vze engine. when i drive there is a schreeching coming out of the engine bay. not quite sure what it is . only just started bout 2 weeke ago and is getting louder every time it is driven. i have a niche that it could be the water pump but do not want to start taking it apart without some advice.

im open for any information that i can get and it would be greatly appreciated
thanks.

check tension of belts, and visually check that they are not running in the bottom of the vee...when belt wears enough on the sides, it runs on the inner diameter and screaches

thanks m8. the only thing i didn't mention is that the schreeching only sometimes happens and when it does it is loud then it is quite. it is normally quite while idleing, most of the times its not there but when it is it is normally when the car is sitting on round 2500.
