chip mod question

today i got my chip mod and i installed it and my timing belt starting making a screeching sound for some reason....i un-installed it and put some stuff on the belt and the squeaking went away...has anyone else have had this problem? any ideas of whats going on? and is it a bad idea to put this on a 90 lumina wit 150k miles on it?

Re: chip mod question

there is no timing belt on 3.1L. Which belt are you talking about? Just the serpentine belt? A new chip couldn't possibly make that happen. Get a new belt and tensioner if it's squeaking.

Re: chip mod question

see if you can get it to screech again and listen closely to what is really the problem, and let us know.
