Try taking off the belt and see if it still squeals on a hot restart. Sounds like one of the pulleys may be seizing like the air compressor. Does it have with the AC on and off? If you feel it's a vacuum leak try spraying carb spark around the intake and see if the rpm picks up. Please be careful not to start a fire.
