Rattling coming from S/C.
So I've got this rattling type of noise coming from, I think, my blower. Have I ruined the bearings in it? What's the deal? Why is it making this noise? It isn't constant but it is there from time to time. Also the kit needs an oil change but it isn't THAT long overdue and I rarely drive my car these days anyway.
Then again I don't know if it's the way the belt is rubbing and it just needs changed. It's hard to tell because it is really intermittent. Not sure what the life expectancy is on the belt. Guess I could just replace it and see if the noise goes away. Anyway don't know much about this stuff so any help is appreciated.

No it's a little more subtle than pencils snapping. And it doesn't seem to happen any more or less during acceleration, as opposed to just idling.

before the maf. no boost/vacuum and no a/f gauge. had it dyno'd at one point and the a/f ratio wasn't cause for any kind of alarm so I wouldn't think it'd be detonation. plus i thought that was more of a knocking. maybe i'll try the screwdriver thing but the more i think about it i doubt it's the bearings since the noise doesn't become worse when revving the engine. thanks for the help thus far.

the grand prix gtp chargers were notorious for the pulley bearing going out at about 30k miles. and the supercoupe's were too.
actually, just about every eaton style charger had issues with the pulley bearing now that i think of it. |
