Re: fixing belt squeek with Comet
Never heard of anyone using Comet for that. But, a lot of people never
heard of gapping points with the foil wrapper from a stick of gum,
either.
So, open the hood, and pour some water over the belt. (watch out for
spray : ) You should know soon enough. On the other hand, if it's a
shaft, it may be squeaking all the time but makes far more racket when
wet. Check the tension, and inspect the belt for wear spots.
