As long as the squeal doesn't happen when your foot is on the clutch, its
probably only a slightly loose alt. belt, especially if your car has lots of
add-on electronics & big rad fans to suck up starting voltage. A
clutch-related squeal is far more serious. But using large pry-bars to over-tension a
vee belt is also an excellent way to prematurely wear out water pump
bearings. Like Goldilocks, you gotta get the belt tension 'just right'.... FWIW- J
