Engine noise

Replaced ac clutch assembly on compressor and new belt ac works great no more racket from bad pulley bearing but when I cut ac off start hearing a chirp squill sound any ideas thx

 

Is the clutch spaced in spec with shims? It could be that the clutch is skipping a little on the pulley because it is too close.

 

I put the shims back from old to the new parts just like it came off

 

The new parts didn’t come with any

 

Watch the compressor clutch see if you can see what happens when it chirps

 

Could it be belt "chirp",,, which would need a little more belt tension or possibly a new belt because it slips for a micro second, chirp?

 

It’s a new belt so may try to tighten tomorrow thx pulldo

 

I was supposed to put the spacer from old parts to new correct?

 

The belt might need to be tightened,
The idler pulley is new?

 

What is the clutch gap measurement mine is trying to turn every ow and then that my racket

 

What year is your truck? Engine? I can look it up for you.

 

It’s a 99 3.4

 

You would use a feeler gauge to check clearance

 

The reason the old shims might not work are because it is possible the the old clutch was slightly worn thus thinner than the new one placing the new one technically closer to the pulley than the old.

 

Had to add one more this spacer got the gap right now everything good thx for the specs ajklug1
