i had a belt squeal initially. my new gates belt was $7 and change. took me 10 minutes to change it along with cleaning the other pulleys, noise went away.

you should replace the belt while your there anyways, & clean/degrease the other pulleys while your there

It seems like there is quite the trend that folks end up a squealing belt after installing a lightweight pulley from either MI or NST.

Replacing the belt and cleaning up the pulleys while you are swapping out the pulley is great great advice.
