noise after head gaskets and lim



yeah thats pretty much the noise. it doesnt sound like a vacuum leak to me but i cant really pinpoint where its coming from.
 
It kinda does sound like a shifted gasket, but the engine is running pretty smooth from what I can tell. Break out the carb clean and spray around. If it's a vacuum leak, you'll find it.
 
ok i can try that but i dont think it does it until its warmed up. the car runs perfectly just has that squeal and do the rockers/lifters sound a little noisy? thanks again for the replies
 


i have brake cleaner but not sure what brand it is. also it idles perfectly and if i pull off a vacuum line it idles like crap.

See if pulling your oil cap off makes a difference. Try tightening the upper intake manifold with the car running and see if that helps. If those don't help pull the belt off and start it and see if it helps.
 
It's a 3100...trust us..that's a vacuum leak. Check the stupid connections at the top of the TB. Those are super easy to have leak.

(Did anyone else have the vid open and think to themselves. I see the problem...it's a 3100. then the vid played.)
