I have a 95 jeep cherokee sport. I just had a new sepentine belt and new idler pully put on. Now it makes a bird like chirping noise. Can this noise be stopped and since I got the new belt it over heats. Thanks

Is the belt on right? Check on site here under repair or blet replacement guides. The chirping may have a bad pulley on one of the accessories. Make sure coolant is ful lthen have pressure checked.

Yes the belt is on right. Took the jeep in last Saturday. The service person but on 2 belts so far but is still chirping loud and over heating 2 or 3 minuets while driving. The service person thinks it is the water pump but I think the thermostat is stick. I hope it is not a cracked head.

Check the belt alignment and pressure check the coolant system for leaks like ahead gasket. If it overheats quick it could be a tstat for the overheat problem
