So i did my grind today and the noise stayed. I readjusted the rockers and it goes away (fan belt off). Put valve cover back on and put fan belt on, noise comes back. I disconnect PCV and hook up vacuum gauge and it fades away. I reconnect PCV and it stays gone. I start it later and it there but very faint. After parking it for awhile elsewhere its back and as loud as before.
I dont believe the PCV has any thing to do with it, just coincidence. But its coming from the front of ththe engine like either #1 rocker or maybe water pump/alternator area. When i park kinda downhill the noise fades away to almost cant hear it, and of course i park on a hill at my house.
When i go to school tomorrow im gonna check it out again but im gonna try disconnecting the fan belt to narrow my search to either definitely rockers or front engine stuff. Ill take a video tomorrow but it sounds like a rocker noise but what do i know.
Is it possible for a bad water pump bearing to mimic a dry rocker noise?
Thanks,
Ryan
