A few days ago I started hearing this loud *** whine sometimes when I would get on it from a dead stop. At first i thought the tires might just be rubbin but I didn't see anything. Could it be the differential??

 

Does it do it when you take off from a stop, like as you're letting out on the clutch?

Have you replaced your clutch recently, flywheel?

 

Not recently I haven't no... I am this weekend so maybe I'll find somethin loose i don't know. It kinda sounds like somethin is rubbin together becuz it gets louder as thr rpm's go up but as soon as i let off it stops completely. I can dump it from a roll and it not do this but when I dead stop it makes this noise most off the time.

 

Does the whine sound like its coming from the trans? If so more than likely the TO bearings is shot.

 

I would have said that you were driving a mustang with a whipple charger on it but then I remembered that I was on Honda Tech

All joking aside let us know what you find out when you replace the clutch. You may want to consider a little bit of brake rub possibly? Just another thought.

 

are your belts tight (alt, ps, ac)? you should have about 1/2" of play in them or so. If they are too loose, the belts will squeal on startup and while accelerating.

 

All right...will keep everyone posted

 

No its not the belts...checked em.....thanks tho....this whine is so loud right before i let off it sounds like somethin is about to break

Sounds like a belt to me though. Does it stay constant?
Oil level alright? Oil pressure? Have oil in the tranny?
I can't really think of anything else that would whine.

 

it only does in fist gear from a dead stop and only sometimes....I can do a first gear roll and it doesn't do it

 

does it only whine in a certain gear? could be tranny synchros.

*Edit: you answered my question while i was writing it. I'm thinking synchros.
