all of a sudden last night my steering wheel got tight and it barely makes turns. also while i came to a stop at a light, the engine would start to make a squilling noise and get kind of loud as i took off from the light. but then would stop once i got up to speed.

if its one of the belts, whats the name of it? and do i need a special tool to replace it?
