OK, we all know i have a wrecked explorer... but this ? is about my dad's 1998 ranger... here is the deal.... it makes a wierd chirping sound... it isnt the tire or the breaks.... its mainly only heard at idle like at a stop or parked... my dad says it doesnt chirp at the first startup of the day, it takes about 15-20 minutes before it starts... the sound doesnt go away..... he thinks it may be belt related? anyone got any ideas?
not sure if it matters or not... but it is a 3.0 liter v6, 4x2 automatic with a 3.73 open rearend... it has a/c and power steering.... my dad said he thinks it may be related to the power steering pump's pulley as he said it doesnt completely freewheel (it binds up in some places) when there isnt a belt on it...
