golf mk2 1990 gti 8v owned for 12 years been off the road for 2 years but starts first time every time just got it ready for mot driving to station drove about a mile when it started squealing if i dip the clutch it stops and at low revs driving its not as bad but if i drive it fast its really bad is this just likely to be the alternator belt as its been standing for some time i have a new water pump from ages ago that i never fitted think there may have been a water leak pointed out to me but not saw any water leaking since so never changed it.
thanks for looking any help/advise is really appreciated
kind regards keith Unsure

Well since it's been sitting for so long, the belts would be a good place to start. Check them out, if they're cracking or look bad change them out, if they look good readjust them....

If the pump had been leaking water at any point in time, it would be a real good idea to change
