its not a very good sound im not sure if its fuel related or what



need help it sounds like it could be catastrophic if left alone

 

What kind of voltage does your alternator put out? It sounds like it could be a bearing. Does it get worse with rpm? How long has it done this? Also do you have a aftermarket oil pressure gauge? If so what does that read?

 

haven't checked alternator out put, it only does it once it warms up, it goes away as rpm increases and it has only done it sense i put in a different motor, no after market oil gauge.

 

still need some help the only thing i could think is if there is an internal seal in the fpd that is causeing it

 

The ghost of rotary past?

 

The rotary gods smiting me letting me
know that I am unworthy because I will probably get pulled over every 5 miles

 

Well op if you think thats bad?My dad let a friend drive my car when it was low on oil,told him not to touch it till I got back to do an oil change.Well he didn't listen and now my car has this spine cringing vibration at idle to 2500 or so.And I cant afford a rebuild right now.Well do they have a crying emoticon???INsert here> <

 

^ And you are expected to pay for this rebuild why?

 

^^^^^ Oh I don't really plan on a rebuild.If anything its gonna be a j-spec tII but still the fact remains that someone else fucked my car up(its like em having sex with my girlfriend).I cant blame my friend for dad letting them drive it.And me and my dad just really started talking to each other im 22 and if I jump his **** I fell that I will never be able to talk to him again.Its complicated Oh well I guess, I got the to4b Ive been planning to put on something and ss manifold all i need is a wg and injectors.If its done,, anyone need s4 n/a base engine parts?

 

Sory for double post but to op that sounds like a bearing outside the engine.Its too high pitched to be inside to me.It could even be a tiny exhaust leak whistlin dixe lol.................And another thing on my engine it would never rev to 8 grand bfore but now it does.Whats the oil pressure supposed to be a different rpms to be safe?Up top it runs like it used to idk

 

it looks like there is some sort of liquid forming around down by the primarys, i dont know if it is the vid or what. looks bad though

 

just when you think your luck cant get any worse.

any way found out it was my fpd leaking, so as i am pulling everything off to change it i drop the fuel rail spacer for the primary fuel rail into the LIM so yeah loads of fun for me to have come the time i try and get it out

 

Get a can of wd40 and spay at the pulleys see if it goes away. or it its a belt noise try taking a bar of soap and putting it on the belt as its running and see if that does anything.

It sounds too high pitch to be a leak. imo.


didnt read that you found it.

 

i thought thats what it might be, i could barely see it in the vid but i could tell it was pooling up down there. let me know if you need any injector o-rings after you tear the primarys off. i have an extra set. and im in town till monday afternoon. hit me up

 

its back.... i am running out of things that it could be. i changed the fpd all the fuel lines checked my vacuum lines and replaced my belts. i dont know what else to do.

 

That my friend is a LIM-UIM vac leak... You are talking about the whistle right?

Easy fix, But temp fix Pm me for details.

 

Get a bottle of water with a sprayer. Spray around the UIM LIM till it stops making the sound. and thats where the leak is!
