Default Clutch Squeeling

I recently installed a heavy duty drive clutch spring in my 2005 CC gas and when I took it apart I cleaned the clutch housing with brake cleaner. Now with it back together when I first take off the clutch squeels until the belt tightens and the cart starts to actually move. What is the best way to fix this? I don't want to spray the clutch with WD40 but not sure what to do.

I don't think so everything looked good apart. It just sounds like its running dry like something needs to be greased. It only does it until the belt gets tension on it.

as the engine turns before the cart moves that bearing is spinning. onch the belt rises in the clutch, it no longer touches that bearing. i have more than a few that were worn out.

there isn't much in there to make squealing noises. try running it without the belt and see if it makes a noise at idle

Ran it at idle with belt off and didn't hear any noise. Took the belt and worked it back and forth on that idler and thats where the noise is coming from. I took the clutch apart again and the idler bearing feels a little bit rough when spinning by hand so I'm pretty sure thats the problem. Thanks for the help! Where is the best place to buy a new one?
