@superhawkn Yes good ear, that characteristic chirping noise is a seized alternator decoupler pulley, and it was infact bad on that alternator.

You can test to see if the pulley is bad by looking at the belt tensioner, if the tensioner is moving around like crazy or even more than half an inch with the engine running the decoupler is bad and needs to be replaced before it destroys the serpentine belt tensioner serpentine belt.

Thanks 4 ur video. I am thinking about buying a Liberty CRD : how much time for changing a timing belt ?

Maybe next time I have to take things apart I can try to make a video of it.
