1. Completely clean the entire engine and

surrounding components.

2. Apply an aerosol-type powder, baby

powder, foot powder, etc., to the suspected

area.

3. Operate the vehicle for several kilometers,

miles, at normal operating temperature and

at varying speeds.

4. Identify the type of fluid, and the

approximate location of the leak, from the

discolorations in the powder surface.

1. Visually inspect the suspected area. Use a

small mirror to assist in looking at hard to

see areas.

2. Inspect for leaks at the following locations:

Sealing surfaces

Fittings

Cracked or damaged components

Use the J 28428-E high-intensity black light kit

in order to identify the type of fluid, and the

approximate location of the leak. See Special

Tools. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions

when using the tool.

Improperly tightened or damaged

fasteners

Cracked or porous components

Improper sealants or gaskets, where

required

Improper sealant or gasket installation

Damaged or worn gaskets or seals

Damaged or worn sealing surfaces

2. Inspect the engine for customer

modifications.

Is there mechanical damage, or customer

modifications to the engine?

Go to Step 11

System OK

DRIVE BELT CHIRPING, SQUEAL, AND WHINE DIAGNOSIS

Diagnostic Aids

A chirping or squeal noise may be intermittent due to moisture on the drive belts or the
pulleys. It may be necessary to spray a small amount of water on the drive belts in order to
duplicate the customers concern. If spraying water on the drive belt duplicates the symptom,
cleaning the belt pulleys may be the probable solution.

If the noise is intermittent, verify the accessory drive components by varying their loads
making sure they are operated to their maximum capacity. An overcharged A/C system,
power steering system with a pinched hose or wrong fluid, or a generator failing are
suggested items to inspect.

A chirping, squeal or whine noise may be caused by a loose or improper installation of a
body or suspension component. Other items of the vehicle may also cause the noise.

The drive belts will not cause a whine noise.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

2: The noise may not be engine related. This step is to verify that the engine is making the
noise. If the engine is not making the noise do not proceed further with this table.

External oil leak

Inspect for any of the following conditions:

Restricted or kinked PCV hose or engine vent hose

Damaged, incorrect, or incorrectly installed PCV hose

Excessive crankcase pressure

Rough Idle

Inspect for any of the following conditions:

Restricted or kinked PCV hose or engine vent hose

Leaking (damaged) PCV hose

Vacuum hoses worn or not properly installed

Stalling or slow idle speed

Inspect for any of the following conditions:

Restricted or kinked engine vent hose

Leaking (damaged) PCV hose

High idle speed

Inspect for a leaking (damaged) PCV hose

Sludge in the engine

Inspect for restricted or kinked PCV hose or engine vent hose

3: The noise may be an internal engine noise. Removing the drive belts one at a time and
operating the engine for a brief period will verify the noise is related to the drive belt. When
removing the drive belt the water pump may not be operating and the engine may overheat.
Also DTCs may set when the engine is operating with the drive belts removed.

4: Inspect all drive belt pulleys for pilling. Pilling is the small balls or pills or it can be
strings in the drive belt grooves from the accumulation of rubber dust.

6: Misalignment of the pulleys may be caused from improper mounting of the accessory
drive component, incorrect installation of the accessory drive component pulley, or the
pulley bent inward or outward from a previous repair. Test for a misaligned pulley using a
straight edge in the pulley grooves across 2 or 3 pulleys. If a misaligned pulley is found refer
to that accessory drive component for the proper installation procedure for that pulley.

10: Inspecting of the fasteners can eliminate the possibility that a wrong bolt, nut, spacer, or
washer was installed.

12: Inspecting the pulleys for being bent should include inspecting for a dent or other
damage to the pulleys that would prevent the drive belt from not seating properly in all of
the pulley grooves or on the smooth surface of a pulley when the back side of the belt is
used to drive the pulley.

14: This test is to verify that the drive belt tensioner operates properly. If the drive belt
tensioner is not operating properly, proper belt tension may not be achieved to keep the
drive belt from slipping which could cause a squeal noise.

15: This test is to verify that the drive belt is not too long, which would prevent the drive
belt tensioner from working properly. Also if an incorrect length drive belt was installed, it
may not be routed properly and may be turning an accessory drive component in the wrong
direction.

16: Misalignment of the pulleys may be caused from improper mounting of the accessory
drive component, incorrect installation of the accessory drive component pulley, or the
pulley bent inward or outward from a previous repair. Test for a misaligned pulley using a
straight edge in the pulley grooves across 2 or 3 pulleys. If a misaligned pulley is found refer
to that accessory drive component for the proper installation procedure for that pulley.

17: This test is to verify that the pulleys are the correct diameter or width. Using a known
good vehicle compare the pulley sizes.

19: Replacing the drive belt when it is not damaged or there is not excessive pilling will
only be a temporary repair.
