Re: Serpintine Belt
Greasing a belt does not sound like a very good idea. I would try to find out why it's slipping, not greasing it so it will slip more until it breaks. The extra heat and wear will cause the belt to fail before it's time.
Is the tension pulley moving freely so that the proper amount of pressure is on the belt? The bearings on the idler pulley are known to go bad. Altenator, Ac compressor, and power steering all could put too much of a load on the belt to make it sqeal if bearings are going bad.
I put Gates belts on both of my Auroras. One stock length and the other shorter to bypass the ac compressor that went bad. No problems with either.
