A month back I had a chirping sound from under the hood. I removed the blower belt and the chirp went away. It sounded like an aux idler so I replaced all 3 and the tensioner because I broke that accidently. Still the chirping. I swapped the blower pully with one I had here and it still chirped. So the only 2 thing left would be the alternator and crank pullies. Which are both aftermarket. I decided to replace the belt which only had about 2k on it and the chirp went away. But after 500 miles or so its coming back. After the car warms up it goes away. Any thoughts?

Oh and the crank pully is a 6#, the alt is a bit larger than stock.

Take some wd40 and spray just a touch an see where it stops....Before you replace anything else.... It should work if its a pully...
