Idler pulley
Has anyone had a problem with a faulty idler pulley on a Lightning?My buddy just picked up a Blue '02 last week and it started making a noise two days later.The dealer replaced the idler pulley.Is this a fluke or a problem?I have a '01 and with 8000 miles i haven't had any problems except a little smoke at start up.

THANK you guys!
I think you guys may have just answered my prayers! I've been trying to find this annoying high-pitched squeeling noise in my truck forever, but I haven't checked the idler pullies yet. It only does it at about 20 and under in my truck, also. That has to be it. So, which idler is it? Thanks again!
