I can try to make a video as for the water pump i did check it…it seems find however its hard to get in there
if it was the balancer it should make nosie with the belt off right???
however
i do notice the noise DOES change when i turn the steering wheel…so i dont know if its a power steering problem or what???
hummmmmm
yes i check the fluid however i will double check it again I did try to uses a mechanics stethoscope but i hear the noise no mater what i touch lol
and the thing is i don’t have to push down on the gas very much to have the noise stop also if it was the balancer wouldn’t it still make the noise when the belt is off???
thanks

it kinda makes sense but it dont if that make sense…lol

its ok to take the bolt off with impact gun of course dont uses one to put the bolt on cuase it has to be torque to spec
thanks guys
yes i will check it out more and no it makes the noise when the car is parked so i know its nothing to do with the drive train
yes i don’t see any check engine light on ( i think this old car would have a check engine light) i see if i want to replaced the fuel filter i need a special tool i forgot what the tool is called
yes that is what iam going to do can i take that belt off and start the car and see if the noise is still there? by taking the belt off that would tell me right away if its that or something else?

what yall think??
yes iam not sure why the shops wants that much i bought the car cheap and this is what the owner told me
So can i run the car WITHOUT rthe belt on?? of course this would be for a short time to see if it makes the noise of course if it dont make the noise then i know its not the balancer will for the most part unless it needs to be unload to make the noise….lol
the rattle seems to go away when driving the car if that helps sorry should of said that sooner
