Power steering pump noise?

[Corey]

I just put my engine together after doing the timing belt, cps, front seal, and crank timing sproket (crank cancer). The car runs awesome now, but I am getting a whinning from the power steering belt. I am wondering if anybody knows if those things make noise if the belt is tightened too much. I think I over tightened it. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Corey

if u press on the belt, there is supposed to be 1/4 inch of play

i bet its your timing belt

It might be the belt tension. It might also be air in the PS system or PS pump bearings.

Needs more diagnostic work.

I over-tightened my belt and it cause the p/s pump to make a whining noise and then eventually the seal gave out and there went my p/s as I was doing 80 on the interstate. Be careful.
