Subject: WTF is going on with my JH?
I've been driving the cabby around for the last few days because of =
the roc's bent rims and/or my wife's 4Runner is in the shop -=20
=20
when I start the cabby (cold or hot), I get this pretty loud grinding =
noise - like something is spinning and scraping and it's definitely =
coming from the belt side of the motor.
=20
Running/revving it around causes it to go away (moreso when it's =
warm), but once it idles for a minute or so, it comes back. And it's =
been getting worse lately.
=20
I'm not quite sure what to make of it - it's a pretty strong runner, =
don't think it's the water pump because the cooling system works fine, =
it doesn't have power steering, so that's out...any ideas?
=20
(incidentally, I plan on getting rid of the JH block and going with an =
ABA - I just worry about doing some irreparable damage if I keep driving =
it (I'm going to have to drive it for the next few days while the roc's =
rims are getting straightened...))
=20
TIA, JT
