I opened my hood today with the engine running. I just finnished a valve adjustment so i was listening for taping. Well instead of hearing taping i hear a few faint squeeks. So i finnaly figure out it's coming from my distibuter or so it seems to be. I'm guessing the bearings are going bad? Can anyone give me more info?

 

sounds like bearings......get a new dist. mines was doing that but when i changed the dist. it was all good...............

 

If it get louder (loud enough to hear it w/ the hood closed) you better have an extra distributor on hand. Mine did the exact same thing at 82,000 miles and the local shop knew they had me by the *****.... there was no way I could make it home....
$480 later I was able to drive home.

Good luck

 

$480 Damn that's alot of money. I thought they ran around $250-300. Well this sucks, don't ya hate when you have to repair your car with your mod money. Oh well such is life and you have to have transportation.

 

At least you got the mod money there! It would really suck if you didnt have any money to fix it with.
