Hello friends

Can stop squeeking noise, I have replace everything on my 1996 4.3 blazer engine front, altenator, idle pulley, tensioner and pulley, water pump and belt. When I replace the belt the noise went away for about a month and came back. I spray the belt with water and noise goes away for a few seconds. after 3 belts lasting a month, I have run out of options, also replece the battery with a new one. Any ideas please feel free to replay.

Thank you for you inputs in advance

Seems to be a common problem. Used to have a 97 that ate a belt every 3-6 months. There is a TSB on the power steering pump pulley alignment, but mine was fine. I bought a "lifetime" belt the last time and it seemed to be holding up better.
