Getting the Wheeling Fever
Ok.. I did a bit of deep water this last weekend. never got stuck in any of it, just had to push through it. Now the engine is louder, I have some kind of whining coming for the front of the engine. I think it is a pulley. I have A/C
and that pulley went out once before but i have replaced it and I am pretty sure that it is not that one. Does any one know if you can grease pulleys? maybe with some WD-40? or some other lube to keep things quiet in there?

the WD-40 won't keep them quiet in the long run, but it will shut them up tempararyly so you can figure out which one is making noise.

find the pulley thats making the noise then go to checkers and they have them there i dont recommend getting it at a junck yard cuz i have gone through 4 idler pulleys to find out they suckand last no more than a month. im almost sure that its going to be an idler pulley cuz that same thing happend to my 4.0l. that i know of checkers is the only one that carries them aside of the delership.

Body Damage is Cool
checker, schucks, and kragen are the same. just different names in different parts of the country.
