good luck on finding your problem, does your belt feel loose any at all, I was thinking like FirebirdPhil, belt, maybe belt tensioner spring fixing to go. :dunno:

fbodyrs96, what did it sound like?? Mine started making a noise today, kinda quite at first, know it's kinda louder. Sounds like Christmas aluminum foil wadded up in your hand while you open and close. Kinda a crinkling noise. Is that what yours did??

ok, i'm in full blown panic mode right now, taking it to shop in morning. It started today, kinda quite, then got louder thourout the day, so a buddy said put a little belt dressing on it, I did, just 2 little squirts, cranked it up and it got louder, so I cut it off. When you race engine it gets quite.
