ok i have searched the forms and couldent find anything that macthed up to my problem exactly.
for about the past 4 months my engine has been making this horrible whinning sound. its there ALL the time. as soon i start the car. when i rev the engine its whines even lounder. so i finally got around to taking the serpentine belt off last night and trying to spin the alterantor pully by hand to see if it was that. it wasnt. i moved to the power steering pump pulley, and i could move the pulley side to side a little bit. im pretty sure its not suppose to move at all, just spin. i tryed to spin it by hand and it would not make the noise, but im pretty sure i just was not spining it as fast as the engine could. has anybody else experniced this?
btw the car is a 1998contour svt with 120k
