squeaking noise...

my truck is making a weird squeaking noise and i can't figure out what it is, its constant and i can't hear it to well when i rev the engine but when it idles you can here it a little and when yoou kill the engine you here it alot. All my belts are tight and i am right on all my fluid levels, and thats as far as i got...I think its around the fan or one of the belts on the left it almost sounds like a seized bering....idk!!!
heres a quik video. [GVIDEO]http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3855120732783991054&q=4runner+squeaking&ei=TyRoSKj mNoPCqgOltL3FAw[/GVIDEO]
Ps, i also know there's ticking but i can't find anything wrong with the engine and i think its just the injectors...

May be a bad pulley, but I cant hear anything over that exhaust.

oh geez, before I opened this I though it was another "I here a squeak at full turn" thread, lol



the vid will not play 4 me for some reason, but how old is the H20 pump?

another common and cheap-fix culprit are the belt idler pulleys. the way you describe it only squeaking at low RPM and when you shut it off leads me to believe it's a bearing in the belt system... could be an idler pulley, maybe even say a PS pump... without the video playing for me, I can't really narrow it down

maybe there's a mouse stuck in there somewhere? hehe just kidding.

I hear a sqeak at around 15-16 seconds as the engine is turned off.
I noticed that the fan appears to rotate quite a bit after the engine has stopped.
Maybe it's the fan clutch going out.
