These sounds just don't sound normal or right to me. What do you think?

YesReturn fuel system on this car?
Same here along with ID1000s. Same sound. It's not the motor.
I wouldnt say its not the motor but i cant see it being the injectors. Ive never heard any injectors that noisy outside of an old diesel.
Have you pulled the belt(s) yet? Your blower RPM is a touch higher than mine but you have some whining going on that I dont. Wondering if something on the front of the engine is making the noise.
The speed/rhythm suggests top end to me but I would do the following:
Pull the blower belt and run it
pull the acc belt and run it.
get a mechanics stethoscope and trace the sound down. use both the metal tip and the open tube method.
does it clean up at a little higher rpm?
or consistently get louder with rpm ?
As stated above, first one sounds like injectors, I wouldnt worry myself too much with that one. However the second one is a bit more alarming. How does it change with RPM?
It seems to clean up at higher rpm's. Pretty much can't hear it at higher rpm's but as soon as the motor goes back to idle speed it's there. Doesn't sound like it's at the same speed as the motor.
Seems to fade with higher rpm.
What's kind of clutch do you have? Twin disk?
My RXT Is very noisy sometimes especially at cruising speeds in the higher gears u see very little to no load. But I've never heard it making noise idling.Yes, the RXT
First video sounds completely normal. Injectors. Second video was harder to tell, initially sounded like something was off but hard to tell. You already removed the blower belt and that didn't change it so I'd suggest the stethoscope next and narrow down where its coming from.
