Sometimes when I start my car up cold and turn the wheel really far in one direction, the serp belt squeals. When I straighten the steering wheel out, the squealing stops. When the car warms up, the squealing doesn't happen at all. Just curious how tight the belt should be. I've heard about a half inch of play. I don't want to tighten it up too much and damage the pulleys.

Also, ps fluid (dexron III) appears very thin/watery and has a milky-white coloration to it. I don't think it's aeration as there are no bubbles in the fluid.

I just recently replaced my pump and the fluid is new. Any thoughts on these issues?

Thank you.
