pump does sound well used lol
maybe it locked up and melted the wires then. id still double check them tho.

Ive attached pictures of where I grounded I had 30 going to the + on the pump seems that it even got a little hot and stuck itself to the other wires although didmt stick or get hot enough to do damage 87 going to the positive battery post 85 going to the switch in the fuse box and 86 going to the ground near the top of the car while the ground on the pump is the one near the head light Shared album - Thomas Zerilli - Google Photos
Probably a good idea wont be able to finish tonight though also had to take care of my coolant elbows leaking and have a lot to do this weekend and plenty of home work but I'll definitely follow this when I put the intercooler setup back together also what did you use to glue your barbs to the coolant resolver I used liquid nail and it seems to be leaking a hair😤
i used marine epoxy. sanded the plastic and metal tubes some to scuff em up good, then sealed em up. sanding gives the epoxy something to bite into and hold better.
Okay cool may have to get a third bottle lol since now ive screwed up the second one maybe I can clean this one up though but I'll use that marine epoxy and sand it up as well
haven't had a chance to get to this yet hopefully I can this weekend but in the mean time Ive been having a weird intermittent squealing noise coming from my engine for the past 2 weeks. at first I noticed I had a coolant leak and figured out the coolant elbows I installed didn't seal and were spraying onto the belt well I fixed the leak but the noise is still there? belts are both relatively new and the leak is non existent now. seems to only squeal when car is fully warm and foot is off the gas. is it just a bad belt due to the overexposure to coolant or could it be something more serious. note that the car runs fine and with the windows up and music up you would never even be able to notice the issue.
Pulleys are all new less than 15k miles and I have a valve cover breather cap should I just run that for a drive and if the noise goes away then I know its that right?
If that fixes it should I just run it with the breather lol is it that much harm?
Or I wonder if excess rtv came loose and clogged the pcv valve? That would explain why it didnt happen right away and would be an easy fix
no breather. you could run a line vc to tb. but if you got a ic with working pcv, make sure the holes are clear.
if its the pcv the sound you hear is coming from the crank seal. its sucking in air. taking the oil cap off will make it go away , if yo uput your hand over the hole, you will feel it sucking on your hand...engine running of course.
yea its the ssic it has a front and rear hole in it so pcv should work fine with it correct?
and that crank seal sucking in air cant be good
ill check if it sucks when I get home as I said the squealing is very intermittent so it will be hard to diagnose off just the noise
if its not sucking,,,take the belts off and fire it up for a min or two, see if the sound is still there, hand spin all them pulleys if the sound is gone.
you can also wash the belts, scrub brush and hot soapy water works great.
also make sure the belts are on the balancer all the way, ive put the sc belt on and had one rib riding the edge of the balancer. makes the tensioner really tight too.
Definitely the pcv had to pull the cap off it was being sucked so hard going to look at the pcv valve now see if its jammed up in there
