I pulled the tensioner arm, without pulling the radiator. It seemed fine. I regreased the sleeve and washer behind it. I also replaced the tensioner spring.

I checked alternator, water pump, power steering, idler pulley, air conditioner compressor and fan clutch for ease of rotation. All seemed fine except for fan clutch. Fan clutch has resistance but turned smoothly.

There is no chirping or squeeling when car is running and fan belt is removed.

After starting the car, the chirping noise occurs for about 4 minutes; doesn't matter whether the air conditioner is turned on or not. When I rev the engine, I get a loud squeeling noise. After 4 minutes, no chirping or squeeling.

I need more assistance with troubleshooting.


Thanks
