Re: '94 Tbird LX V8: High-pitched whine



'owdy,



I belong to '94 Tbird LX V8 (4.6), 60k mi., *no* hard usage.



When I start it (cold) in the morning, I can just hear (from inside) a high-pitched whine. Stick my head under the hood and it is more noticable. Neither the pitch nor the intensity seems to change when I rev the motor a bit.



Seems to go away after I drive the car a while, but I gotta double check this ...



I'm thinking alternator or belt tensioner. Do these need/take lube? Other possibilities?



TIA, Puddin'
