New Sound

01OhioAlero · 08-26-2014, 10:17 PM

My alero is now making a really loud and annoying sound by water pump. Water pump has about 300 miles on it new. It quits when I start driving but when I get to a redlight it gets really loud and I can overhear it over the radio, heres the video any ideas? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQvv...VPJvC 591HqCQ
Also a quick pull video on to a onramp. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLxv...rHVPJvC591HqCQ

It sounds like two pullies rubbing together

You have metal on metal rubbing...it shouldn't be hard to locate the source with that kind of noise.

When I swapped my 350 into the Delta I had the same noise, it wasn't constant as the crank pully and water pump pulley would rub due to the crank pulley being on c*cked

Made the same noise, check your pulleys. I'd start with the WP since you just replaced that

Doorman makes the delete kit for like 30 bucks

sleepyalero showed me a way so you dont have to buy the a/c delete kit. All you buy is (autozone part #) belt-610K and replace the idle pully with a ribbed idle pully-231086
