    At those miles, my vote is the belt. Most here will suggest a GoodYear gatorback belt.

    At 32k you shouldn't need a tune up.

    sounds like a belt or pulley. Where is the sound coming from? have you tried listening close with a stethoscope (screw driver)? Could very well be the bearings in the pulley getting ready to take a shit...especially if the car sat that long. maybe they seized up some from not being used for so long.

    i would try new belts first. If you still get noise, you could have a bad tensioner

    i remember way back their was a GM TSB for a bad idler design - it would cause the squeaky annoying noise... i ponied up the money to pay for the fix because it was so annoying... that was a long time ago (several years), and i really haven't had any squeaky noises since..
