Spoke too soon, the belts were quiet for about four days and now the squeal is louder than before. I don't know where its originating from. I drove to work today and it squealed the whole way, when I got home I felt around and their are two tensioners (this is a Gen 1 v6), the one closer to the top and adjacent to the alternator wiggles ever so slightly when I attempt to move it (eng off). The other one (above PS) doesn't move at all when I attempt to wiggle it. So I tightened up the center bolt on the tensioner, as well as tightening the bolt that sticks out to the right at an angle just above it (1:00). The belt seems tighter by doing that, but when I started it back up she still squeals with the rising rpms. I don't know what this is. The engine runs fine, smooth, in temp otherwise. Please help.... !! And if you hadn't read thru this whole post I just replaced all three belts last week...
