Now this issue at hand is this tapping noise coming from I believe the alternator. From what I've found of videos on youtube and such about spun bearings or a shot motor and this sound doesn't match them. Nor does the performance of the car as its running amazingly right now. There is just a tapping noise that I thought was my tensioner pulley so I pulled that and replaced it along with the idler and other tensioner (just to be safe). I pulled the supercharger belt and ran the engine so its not that, also I've already replaced the coupler. Can I pull the main belt and run the engine for a few minutes without having any kind of an issue? I'm looking for anything anyone may have tried in this situation so I can check all my bases at once. Its been raining pretty good for a week or so and will be doing so more and i have only a few days of time to look into this so.....give me a few things to check out while I'm there.
