Basically like the title says. When I get on the accelerator as soon as it shifts from 1-2 gear I hear a loud earrrrrrrt sound. it just comes from 1st to 2nd gear though. I just changed the belt ,with no help. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

How far off are the marks on the tensioner????

It might be on its last legs...

 

Is it your power steering pump cavatating?
did you check the P/S fulid?
Maybe its your belt isnt tight enough on your alt.
Your alt has to put out 14.2 - 14.5 volts at any rpm and when your puting a load on it and it slows down the volttage regulater sends more power the exciter windings or armature windings (I cant rember if our cars have alt's that are brushless or not, they look brush type to me) in the alt and makes the alt shaft a lot harder to turn. Make ing it slip for a second.
