i opened up the timing inspection cover and started the car up...the noise i was hearing wasnt the PS pump or any of the accessories but the damn gear of the timing belt...it looks as though they did not put the lockrings on the cam gears or something cuz one cam is really spining NOT IN A CIRCLE...ima post a vid up in about 1hr so for now, wat do you think it is? Bent/stuck valves? GRR!!

maybe it's a bent shaft on the pulley shaft thingy

 

 

:P

 

 

it looks like the little shaft that the pulley sits on is bent a bit

 

can you change just that part of it? o.o

Is there a sleeve, spacer, bushing etc. that the pulley slides onto? maybe they forgot that... Are the cam pulleys key'd in any way either? What your hearing when you rev it might be the pulleys teeth meshing together(when they shouldn't) just a few :idea:'s, though I've never had the pleasure of looking these motors over well. May want to actually take it to a venerable garage or GM dealer soon, running it like that can't be good :oops:
