V Belt Config.
at low rpms, like under 1700, one of my belts squeels like none other, and i think i might have 1 of the 2 belts on wrong...i have deleted a/c and smog, so just the alt/water pump/power steering left...i went and got 2 stock belts, and put them on, but i believe its the one going from the crank to the power steering is the one making the noise...i was thinking, maybe its not supposed to go around the crank, maybe its supposed to go around the waterpump instead...or maybe both, who knows, but if somebody could tell me the correct route, or show me a picture that'd be great...
I don't see why it squeels at lower rpms, and not at all at upper rpms...

i was looking through my old pics, and i got one of the engine bay...i got it hooked up the exact same way as it was, just a single small belt going from the crank to the power steering...
so we know that is right, what else could be wrong? is there something i could maybe spray on the belt to keep it from sqeaking or something?

well i took the little belt off that was going around the PS and the crank, and i got a longer one and went around the crank, up around the waterpump, then around the power steering, and it worked like a charm....absolutely no squelling!!!
thanks Apeiron for the diagram....
