Thread: can someone help me figure out what this noise is

It sounds kinda like someone shoved a wooden spoon in a metal fan.

what lol? random

purple wanted to know what they sounded like.

ooohhh gotcha

ha purple...i like that lol

Well guys I removed both belts today and started the car and that noise is gone so 1 it tells me is something with the accesories and 2 its nothing internal thank god. When the ps belt removed I spun all the pulleys by hand none really made the sound I'm hearing. The ps pulley turned smooth with no chattering or noise but with a little drag but I assumed it to be normal cuz of the fluid. All of the other pulleys turned good with no problems but the a/c pulley really got me. When I spun that one it was really loose I guess, no drag at all. When I spun it, it just kept going and going, is it supposed to be like that? I think I'm gunna invest in one of those stethoscopes that a couple guys mentioned before

my a/c compressor is noisy as hell....makes all kinds of noise.....does it at random though...not always

Ok well I bought one of those stethoscopes and found the source of the noise I'm hearing and its coming from the a/c compressor so I'm just gunna buy an a/c delete pulley. I don't really care about ac that much anyways, I've got windows and a sun roof

No a/c in AZ....your freakin crazy lol...go to the junkyard and buy a 40 dollar a/c compressor..youll thank me when its 110 degrees.

nah, im a big boy i can deal with it. my '86 t/a had no a/c and no ps and i drove that POS around for two years in high school. i can stand a little heat for ten min between work and home everyday
