Post Squealing Fan

After getting back from a 10 mile drive I was backing my jetski in the backyard. Upon parking (with engine running) the fan kicked in and started squealing.

I put the truck in drive and as I moved the fan kicked off and the squealing stopped. Once I parked again (with engine running) the fan would squeal.

Anyone have this happen before? Where should I grease and what type of grease should I use?

Cool

Have you checked your serpentine belt's condition? Have you ever replaced it? If it's fine, you could try some belt dressing.

I agree with Max. Sounds like either bad belt or weak tensioner pulley.
