Loud Screetch/Squeel (belt?) ONLY when I gas. 200 1992

The alternator has to recharge the battery every time you start it so the load is greater on startup, also greater at higher speeds.
It's not a function of the accelerator, it is a function of load, engine speed and acceleration.
If you have power steering it might squeal when you steer rapidly also.
