98 Tocoma Squealing On Start
When I start up my truck, I get a loud squealing that lasts maybe a minute if not only a few seconds. As the sound stops, I get a little surge in power/clutch type engagement from the truck. I have also noticed that at higher speeds, I can hear a high pitch sssssssss, very faint though. Maybe a bearing going out in the alternater or clutch? Thanks for your help with this question.

I just replaced an alternator with a bad bearing. If the bearing is bad it doesn't stop. It just gets louder the warmer it is and the longer it runs.
