Get the wheel up in the air on a stand so you can look at it closely and spin it to see what's going on.

As TJ noted, chances are if there's a large difference between tight and loose spots there is a problems - either a link is seized or there is uneven wear.

Too tight causes plenty of problems, so find the tight spot and set adequate slack there. They tend to make more noise when they are tight.
