Squeeling Asuna

EmJay · #1 May 8, 2007, 02:13 PM

OK, here's the thing. My '93 Asuna is missing 2 of the plastic splashguards under the car, and whenever I go through a puddle, or it rains, or if there's any sort of moisture she'll squeel like a SOB. I'm guessing, possible it's cause of those guards. I've looked @ the belt & that's in good shape (not sure on how much play u should have, but it's fairly tight, good enought I'd say). I've heard these models have a spring-loaded tensioner, an there's no way to adjust the tension. Tried that belt dressing to make it stop squeeling, worked for the first day, after that it was terrible, even worse. Not sure what to do. Should I replace the belt, try & find a store that carries a tensioner (GOOD LUCK), any ideas? I'm in Alberta, so if anyone has any parts for a '93 Asuna, let me know, so far I'm thinkin' I need a tensioner and the splashguards.

Time to replace the belts.

Thanks for the help. So-far so-good. No more squeel. Wanted to rate your answer, but message tells me I have to spread some Reputation. How would I go about this?
