ok i got everything hooked up on my d16y7 motor and its in the car i started it and it ran for like 20 seconds perfect but then it started making a whining noise and i dont know what it is. any ideas

 

Have enough transmission fluid?

 

What kind of whining noise? Is it constant? Did you put a new timing belt and tensioner on?

 

its stick i had it in neutral and it didnt leak any when i pulled the tranny out

 

no i didnt touch the timing belt and or tensioner and its constant if you want to call me so you can hear it your more than welcome my number is 262 893 7103

 

i was told maybe the water pump

 

it ran perfectly for like 20 to 30 seconds though when i pressed the gas a few times is when the whining started

 

Do you know how many miles are on it? It could be the tensioner going bad or possibly an over tightened power steering or alternator belt.

 

it has 145000 miles on it and i can check the alternator belt how do you know if its too tight oh and could it be the a/c belt to tight too

 

Is it a motor you just bought or was it your original? As far as checking the belts, just push on them to see if there's any flex or if it's really stiff. It should flex a good bit when you push on it.

 

Try removing the alt and a/c belt. If the noise is still their you will have eliminated those things.

Get a stethoscope and take a listen to the timing cover see if you can pinpoint the area which is making noise

 

Don't really need a stethoscope, just use a long, plastic handle screwdriver. Works just the same, just not as flexable.

 

Agreed but you can pick up a stethoscope for about 6 bucks at auto zone nappa and what not.

If you use a screw driver just make sure it is a hard plastic handle. Better ones some techs use have the metal run all the way to the base and they grind it down until the metal is showing.

 

ok so the belts are a little tight but i tried starting it again and let it ran for like 40 to 50 seconds and the whining faded a little bit i didnt touch them yet so would that forsure be the belts

 

Just loosen them up. I'm not sure how to loosen the a/c belt since I've never had a/c, but the power steering belt is just 2 bolts on the mount and then the long, skinny bolt going into the pump and the alternator is one bolt on the slider looking thing.

 

yeah i dont have power steering

 

its shooting the po141 code for obd II whats that mean
