Just did a cam and stall swap on truck. Also had all gaskets replaced. Once I drove away from shop I noticed a constant chirping under hood. It never squeels, just chirps. The truck won't be tuned until Tuesday and it doesn't idle so hard for me to troubleshoot. It never goes away up to 3K, since the truck isn't tuned I haven't gone over these rpms. Any ideas fo what it could be?

The shop that did work is a long ways from house and don't have the down time to drop it back off. Hoping it something I can do myself.

 

Does it sound like a belt chirp? It's possible some fluid got on a belt or pulley and that's whats causing it now.

 

Sounds like more of a pulley. But I've also read about the cam synchronizer?

 

And I've put about 100 miles on it. If any fluid on a I would imagine the sound would have changed. It's been the same constant

 

hmm, only chirping or barking should be the tires imo

 

idler pulley. Ive seen it happen a lot. Ive seen some a/c compressors make the noise also.

 

Could be idler pulley. Could be the belt. I had a squeaking problem a while back that was constant and loud. No matter how much I cleaned the belt it wouldn't go away. Ended up buying a new belt, noise went away.

 

check a/c belt. make sure its on all the way. if i get on it and let off before it shifts it slides the belt and makes the most annoying chirping noise. i need to change belt and tensioner since i dont even need a rachet to take the tension off it lol

 

Off today so going to buy both. Thanks for the help guys. After I fix this dilemma and Wheatley gets ahold of Tuesday then hopefully the tires are the only thing making noises! Sure I will to after I stop at the gas station too!
