when i start my crx the revs go up (like most hondas) and then drop, but when they first start to drop, there is a shrill squeeling sound from the engine bay and all of the lights in the car start to dim, and when the squeeling stops, they go back to normal. I suspect it is a loose pulley or belt, maybe somthing with the alternator?? any advice on how to deal with this would be great.

 

Sounds like your alternator belt is loose.

 

yeah what he said just found out why my was doing it to I lost the bold that goes under the alternator

so word to the wise if you do not want to get stranded dont punch it until you fix it I got to get a stupid bolt that cost liek 3 bucks haha

 

thanks guys, sounds like that is the problem
