idosubaru Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 i get a screetching at start up....very brief and no other symptoms. it is not accessory belt or pulley related. and almost positive it is not timing belt pulley related. i'm thinking clutch stuff.....any input?

MorganM Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Shoot some lube on all your pullies, especially timing belt pullies, and a little belt dressing. See if it stops; if not then look elsewhere. Also might have someone else start up the engine while you are under the hood. See if you can narrow it down.

idosubaru Posted October 14, 2005 Author Share Posted October 14, 2005 started the car with no belt, so it's definitley not the belt/pullies because it still did it. checked t-belt pullies and swapped one that was a little noisey, still made noise. it never ever makes it except at start up....maybe the starter? ah...those are easy enough to swap out, i might try that.....after the "have someone else start it" trick.

idosubaru Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 swapped starters and all is quiet. sounds great, thanks. had the wife start it and i heard it, started it again with hands on the starter and sure enough i could feel it.
