Message	It does sound belt-ish to me.... I hope for your sake I'm right. Was the noise right after you made those changes or did it happen gradually/all of a sudden at some point? The closest sound I can relate it to (if it's not the T-belt) is power steering cavitation so maybe your oil pump is on the fritz.... were you certain you got a good seal between the sump and the oil pump? Some years have a shaped metal gasket and others have a groove and rubber o-ring. *disclaimer*: all that I say may be true or I may be completely wrong and I accept that.... please, it is your duty as another person on the internet to in-politely tell me how wrong I am :) "The dreaded 2nd windshiled wiper swipe when you turn it off its almost like tis showing you that it's boss, and it doesn't have to stop when you tell it to :("-College Boy (discussion on ptu relocation) "No good reason to put it there anyway. -Bernie (NoVA) False -vorpalZ False. -Bernie (NoVA) You're correct, there are 3 good reasons -vorpalZ False. -Bernie (NoVA) Wow, right again, just remembered another, make that 4 -vorpalZ" XD
