Quite unexpectedly, my serpentine belt snapped. I got a new one and installed it, but I'm not sure it's the right size. The first time I started it up with the new belt, it squealed like crazy for about 10 seconds before it seemed to run fine. The moment I turned the A/C on, however, it started squealing like crazy again. I got the belt from Pep Boys because O'Reilly and Auto Zone were both out of the proper size belt.

I'm waiting for my roommates to come home. Battery died, and I can't check the belt again if I can't start it. I am going to try running it for longer than a minute or two to see if that helps at all.
