[Peugeot-L] 1975 504 diesel lurching

I bought a 1975 504 sedan a few months ago. It was maintained immaculately. I recently started running B99 biodiesel in it with no problems. BEFORE this, I noticed a slight squeeling noise, intermittant, coming from the area where the fan, vacume and other belts converge by the right front under the hood. I spritzed some WD-40 on it and it went away for a few hours. Then it returned, only now it seemed as if a belt were slipping - the car began lurching when going down the road. THe squeal returned with a vengence, and now the car actually has a mind of its own: it will suddenly accelerate without my foot on the gas, or I can gun it over and over and it won't respond at all, not even to rev. Up hills, it completely boggs down and won't go past 30 mph. Anyone shed any light on this trouble?
