on my way back from bedford today, i seen my temp gage go from dead cold to almost the read mark. so i pulled over then bang she died. got out poped the hood checked bleaders and only steam came out at this point i was like fuck lower intake soo i looked at my oil cap it was good. wtf, so i left her there, wint home then to come back and the car was gone i was pissed, it got towed so i got here out. it fired rite up and all i heard this screaching sound then the belt blew and it still made the sound she smoakes under the exhast manifold so i warped the head i think but the screaching what could it be

All your pulleys spin? Lots of rubber shavings? I'm guessing one of your accessories locked up, like my alternator did a month ago.

 

As for the other sound, I'd have to hear it.

[hell_raiser]

um water pump locked up and ill try to record it

[GP1138]

Oh, it's still screeching? I thought the screeching stopped when the belt blew, ergo your belt's friction against the water pump pulley.

Alternator went halfway on my trip to Cali...in a 1985 Fiero 2.8...

that sucks had to wait like to hours for my girl to bring me one

You're lucky...i had to limp it into OK City and wait for an AZ to open...39* sleeping in a STUFFED Fiero that night!

 

Can't complain too much though. Dragged the car out of its resting place only a week before - an Ohio cornfield of 5 years. That was the only trouble i had with it.
