Subject:Alternator belt tension

'91 Carat - New belt by my mechanic. Squeals like hell at start up. He
claims most vanagons do. Claims if you over tighten you will be buying a
new water pump. Any belt better than another? I used to put belt
dressing occasionally, but there has to be a correct set up.

Thanks
