1986 240 Wagon Belt Squeal

Good day all-

I had a new timing belt installed at a Volvo dealer about a year ago and they replaced one of the drive belts at that time.

For the last month whenever I accelerate hard, or sometimes when I just let the clutch out, there is a horrible squeal from the engine compartment.

My 240 is kept in a garage and is a daily driver. The only thing different lately is we have had non-stop almost record-breaking rainfall this winter. I wonder if the damp has something to do with it.

Has anyone else had this problem?


Thanks for your help...
