Alright, i have a very strange problem. Its even hard for me to believe it sounds so wacky. Here it is. My alternator has been squeaking quite badly lately. I am positive it is the alternator, and not something near it, because i took the belt off and spun the alternator by hand w/ the engine off and it is quite sqeaky. Well anyways, while it was running today i took off the radiator cap to check fluid level etc. The alternator stopped squeaking. I figured it was a coincidence, because how would the radiator cap effect the alternator squeaking? Well after i put the cap back on a few minutes later the alternator started to squeak again. I took the radiator cap off again to see if it would stop. It did. I did this like 4 times to make sure i wasnt crazy, and the alternator stopped squeaking every time, for about a minute or two. Weird huh? Whats going on? Any opinions? By the way its a new radiator cap from ford.
