I have the billetflow 2.93 upper with 1 idler.

Lately I have been geting a constant squeeking at low rpm. I replaced the belt about 6 months ago.

Is this a sign of one of my stock idler pullies going out?

Thanks.

If it is the idler yo can push the bearings out and replace them instead of buying new ones.

belt ,spray some water on it see if it stops while its wet.

It actually only starts doing it when it rains... Its so annoying, makes my car sound like a hooptie. It's actually embarrising pulling up to a light and my car sounds like a pile.

I will check the belt again and the idlers.

Hope the idler bearings arn't to expensive..
