    I have a 97 Tacoma 5 speed manual 4x4 4cylinder. for about a week or two now it has a squealing noise when its running, even idle. I thought it was the power stearing pump, i replaced it and it still does it. It does it in neutral too and gets louder as i accelerate, but when I get to 5th gear i cant hear it. Got to reading on here about the clutch and bearings and was hoping someone can help. What does this sound like and what can happen before i can get it fixed? Thank you in advance for any help.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Perhaps it's the serpentine belt is worn out. I hear Goodyear makes a good belt.
