Fan Belt Squeak after alternator changed. - mpt63
I have just changed my alternator on my car but now the fan belt is now
squeaking does it need tightening or letting out ?

Needs tightening.

BTW is this the same ZX that had an alternator problem when it was a Rover? Or are both your cars giving you grief?
