I drive a 90 240 sx with 147k on the motor.

Sometimes when it rains and I start my car, it squeals. Sometimes it does not. If it squeals and I continue driving it as soon as the car shifts into the second gear its all fine.

This happens only when its wet. I know some belt is slipping,not sure which one. Again when the car is idiling there is no noise but when I drive it.... it shows up.

What belt should I be looking for and do you think it really needs to be replaced ?

check your belt tension by pulling up on them . shouldnt be able to move it more then 1/2 inch.
