problems with 2000 z28 camaro
a friend has recently been driving his 200o z28 camaro and the serpertine belt has got thrown off, it was put on about a year ago. does anyone know what may have caused it to come off.
Also we have a 99 firehawk making a chirping noise everything else about it is fine do you think it is the belt tensioner pulley or the bearings in the alternator.
Thanks

a weak/bad tensioner will throw a belt, also if something is locked up ex- ac compressor, it will throw the belt. Usually if something locked up, you will have had noise and heard its demise. Also a wobbly pulley(water pump, power steering) will throw a belt. I suggest putting it back on, running it and watch it from in front of the car, NOT THE SIDES(FENDERS)!! if the belt throws, you have a chance of getting hit with it. I would put money on 1. bad tensioner 2. wobbly water pump
