you don't want to macgyver it back together like he didGot the alignment done this morning and as I walked toward the truck parked outside the shop running, I could hear an irregular metallic ringing sound coming from underneath. I popped the hood and listened in the engine bay, but no dice - it was definitely coming from the passenger side bell housing area. So I went back inside and talked to the manager. I was careful to say that I didn't think it was related to any of the work they'd done, which he appreciated and with that, he asked his guy to put it back up on the rack for a listen underneath.
The mechanic and I were both stumped, so I asked if he had a stethoscope. We each listened to everything under there with the engine running and as near as we can tell it's coming from the starter area. I'm familiar with what a bad flex plate sounds like and this definitely wasn't that. A little Google-fu when I got home, and THIS is exactly the sound I'm hearing. Thankfully I happen to have a brand new AC Delco starter on the shelf, and will install it ASAP.
Lol. If I'm going in that far, I'm replacing the thing.you don't want to macgyver it back together like he did
Hey Wes, did you buy or convert you gauge cluster? I really like that look of the white face and blue leds - that is pretty slick looking.M1 oil change View attachment 379624
hopefully, I am glad she stopped I have managed to swerve enough to avoid others before but dang, that corner is bad anyway even though it's a big intersection many cars are driving thru there just as fast as I was so you have to look 3 or 4 times before pulling out.I bet the driver from the little white car doing the Cali stop is still picking foam out of their ass after seeing you "casually cruising" along.
ya I bought the ppv cluster and then I ordered a white overlay for it then I had a local guy change the leds and needles.Hey Wes, did you buy or convert you gauge cluster? I really like that look of the white face and blue leds - that is pretty slick looking.
