Sqeaky engine noise

I have a 1984 Buick Electra Estate Wagon that has been sitting untouched for 2 years. When I fire it up (which can take a bit) there sometimes is a high-pitched sqeal correspondent to RPM : when I rev it increases directly but sometimes it goes away after running for 1-2 minutes. I am not currently driving it, but perhaps will in future. Would appreciate enlightenment. (engine is 307)

Yes it sounds like you may have a belt issue, may have deteriorated of the the two year span, on the other hand it may be a pulley issue two, you wont know until you change the belt

Sounds like squeaking belts -- have they been inspected/tightened?

Hello,i'm Alessandro from Italy...i own a 1986 Buick electra estate wagon,can the ecm have an influence on the correct automatic transmission operations?...

Your transmission should be either a 200r4 or 700r4 which are not controlled by the ecm. Shifting is controlled by a shift cable connected to the throttle body.

My '84 s10 ran 2 years ago, then it sat outside untouched until now, it turns over but doesn't want to fire up. What should I do to get it running? Is it not getting enough fuel?

It needs a good tune up such as oil change,new wires and plugs, air filer,fuelfilter,and if possible try to drain gas lube all tire rod ends an as much as the chassis that has grease fittings.
