  • OH NO! noise...

    ok... any ideas off the bat of what this might be?
    1996 camaro, and it does need a tune up.. has needed one
    squeaking noise at idle.. kind of a chirpin squeak.
    under acceleration it has this ticking noise, and the squeak quites a little.
    seems like some power is taken away, idles about 1k
    but oil pressure and coolant temp seem fine....
    so, any ideas?

        For the squeaking, I'd check the pulleys. Rotate each one by hand and see if it is stubborn or noisy.

          I'm going to take off the belt later, and start it to see if it stops, and give the pulleys a spin. idle seems about normal now. and the noise isn't AS bad.

            I had that problem it ended up being a pulley, tug around in there and see where that noise is coming from.

            Hah kinda sounds like my car
