2005 Arctic Cat 250 Engine Chirp Noise

[PeteD]

My engine seems to be making a chirp down by the oil pump area. Definitely a rotational noise. Has anybody else had this problem? It also seems to stall when it's cold and you try to rev the engine a little. Almost like it is seizing up. After it warms up it runs perfectly. Still has the chirp though. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Pete

Is this belt driven? If so, have you checked the belt? I'm not great with AC, but we have a few members that are, and hopefully they can help you.

It's shaft driven. The oil pump is also gear driven.

Thanks,

Pete
