whats wrong?
I was getting a squeel outta my a.c. comp. so i replaced it with a brand new one. But 2 days after that the squeel returned so i replaced the water pump, and belt. didnt fix it so i replaced the tensioner, still doin it. seems almost like it is still comin from the water pump but not really positive. any input?

RE: whats wrong?
Could be the Alternator, Water Pump, Idler pulley sounds like a bearing is going out on one of them was the tensioner bad? If so and you drove with it bad for a while, it could have caused one of the other problems...
The water pump could be going, is it leaking coolant through the weap hole? Engine running hot? I did the water pump job myself with a reman one on my 95 3.4 the job wasn't too bad, just be sure to rent a pulley puller if you don't have one!

Also take the belt off and spin all the pulleys one at a time to make sure they spin freely and smooth and they aren't loose (side to side) and worn.
