Loud squeal

[Jr Mint]

So I took my LFP single blade off today and put my accufab t/b on instead...but not the car when you start it makes a little squal noise the entire time...like a loud whistle, but it's coming from the intake side and not the blower...anyone ever have this issue?

Something in my bay has been squealing too. I think it may be my belt. It is fairly new. I also just repaced one of my idler pullies though too. So I'm not exactly sure what it is yet.

Mine goes away after the car gets warm though. Usually only hear it when I start the car and the first couple minutes it's on. Does your squeal ever go away?

sounds like a vacuum leak. double check all the vacuum lines.

I checked all the vaccum lines, don't think that's what it is...here is a clip...

Idler bearings going out?

 

[Jr Mint]

No thats not it, those are all new.....That noise happened right when I switched throtttle bodies

 

[cobracide]

Oh, it does sound like whistling air.. from somewhere.

Your belt isn't wrapped around the snout too much is it? it looks like it almost touches.

 

[Jr Mint]

no, this problem happened when I changed the throttle body..nothing to do with belts or pulleys

Is the TB tight?

 

[SVT03Chris]

and does it go away after the car is warm ?

While it's making the noise go play with the throttle body and make sure it closing all the way.spray some starter fluid around the tb while it's running andsee ifit revs up to check for leak. Or switch it back and see if it still does it.

 

[Jr Mint]

it doesn't go away ever....and I will try switching back...I'm also thinking it may be because of the sylicone gasket I used...I may try using a paper gasket and see if that helps it.
