  • In this video I'll go over how you can find engine noises that increase and decrease with the rpm of the engine as well as engine noises that have their own frequency. Whether you have a bad serpentine belt roller bearing, tensioner bearing, power steering pump, timing belt roller bearing, alternator, ac compressor pump bearing and clutch, air injection pump, clogged pcv, clogged catalytic converter, I will show you can you can fix them.

    The best way to make noises stop is to take it to someone so they can hear it. Every time I do that, the noises stop and the guy thinks im crazy!😂

    I often use a broom stick and cup my ear to it and move it around inside the engine bay. I've done this many a time and
    people tend to look at me rather weird but hey, it works the majority of times like no other! Hell, everybody has a broom
    stick!

      It 107% works. Especially a nice hard wood. I can hear each one of my injectors tick. Moving across the valve cover you can isolate which cylinder is making valve noise, etc. Just as one would with a stethoscope.

    I was told I need to replace my blinker fluid pump on my 2019 VW because it squeals like a pig. Do you know if it’s hard to do. The mechanic wanted $1475 plus labor. I thought that was high so I didn’t have him do it.

      @danielsimpson8929 8 місяців тому

      @myRatchets lol yeah but I don't think you mentioned the fuse for the regulator. Instantly I imagined a paste eater taking out the main bus. ZAP a spritz of burnt hair smoke and he says "vtec just kicked in yo" as he fall flat backwards. DIY at its finest

      @danielsimpson8929 3 місяці тому

      @auginater4200 lol I dunno if it'd kill or not but can certainly arc. Typically don't manuals state to disconnect the battery before doing any work on electrical?
      I'd say normal spade fuses have never given me a problem. I'm talking more so the 100 to 150 amp fuse for the alternator which on some cars is like a bus bar fuse.
      Fuses like this
