Listen to everything with a mechanics stethescope or a 3' piece of hose:
alternator, AC, PS pump, waterpump, fan bearing, and idlers
The old style vacuum pump, with the 2 screws on top, requires oil in its crankcase
through a rear plug

Subject: [Peugeot-L] 505 diesel Engine noise at startup
Hi I'm new to the group. I just inherited a 1985 505 2.3L Turbo 125k
(miles) diesel wagon that runs well except for a screaching noise,
like a loos fan belt, when it starts up. The noise goes away after a
minute or so and less if its been running. I thought it was a loos
belt and since I have tightened all the belts its still there. I
thought it was the vacuum pum but the brakes work fine, a little hard
at the beginning of the day and fine after that (probably a small
vacuum leak). The noise seems to be coming from the
fan/injectorpump/alternator area.
Any Ideas? Anybody have this problem before?
Thanks
Yong
