Cleaning pulleys

How do you clean the pulleys. I have replaced the serpentine belt and the noise stops for a few months than comes back only when its cold and then goes away. Now it is squeaking all the time. Please Help!! Thanks Any other suggestions?

Re: Cleaning pulleys

You may also want to check the belt tensioner. They do wear out after a while. As for cleaning the pulleys, I would imagine they can be cleaned the same way you would clean anything else.

Re: Cleaning pulleys

Unless something is spitting oil or antifreeze on the belt I would say you need a new belt tensioner. They are easy to replace and usually between $40 and $75.

Re: Cleaning pulleys

The tensioner and idle pulleys have a sealed bearing (well kind of) and you can spray alittle silicon or other in them and if that stops the noise change it - will not stay quiet. Don't get spray all over the belt!
