We've been having squealing of the fan / alternator belt, the first 10 - 15 seconds after starting. Because of prior squealing, had belts replaced recently, but it continues. Yes, antifreeze was spilled at one point, but that was over 3-4 weeks ago. Need to know how to tighten alternator belt. I know where the bolt is for the sliding bracket, but what other one do I have to loosen, and how do I get to it, to allow me to tighten it? Thanks very much.
