I just got done with the PA Performance 130amp upgrade...and the 4 gauge charging wire that goes with it. Everything went fine, but when I went to start it up for the first time it kind of squaked for a second. Like the sound of a V-belt slipping or maybe some bearings failing. And then when I'd rev it up it would squeak a little bit each time. But at idle it was sounding perfect.
I was about to get pissed, thinking the bearings were shot in the new alt or something so I shut it off and waited a minute. Then I fired it back up, no noise, took it for a long test drive with no noise...and the mofo is charging just fine. I couldn't believe how bright my headlights were!
Any ideas on the noise and why it disappeared? Think everything is OK???
