Ok, not a rat, but it sounds like it.
My belt jumped off.
I replaced the tensioner. It was cracked, so yeah it actually needed it.
Didn't replace the belt, because the belt has less than 10k miles on it.
With the tensioner replaced, new idler pulley, etc... I am now hearing a squeak. Thought I had a rat at first. You'll know why when you hear it.
It is not a constant squeak. And it does not squeak consistent with turns of the belt or engine. Squeaks once for every several spins of the belt. Sounds like it may be at the bottom of the engine.
Wondering what this might be. Also wondering if it is the reason the belt jumped in the first place.
Anyone else experience this?
Its cold, it's wet, and it's muddy. Not likely I am going to be crawling underneath with a piece of tubing in my ear to pinpoint it, any time soon.
