Engine noise? - got to love them

[SN952NV]

Ok, so some jackass is blocking the inside lane as im merging.. so I punch it.... everytime I get into the motor I can hear this spitting/ sputtering sound under hard acceleration? Fuel injectors? That and when my car shifts (auto) only under hard acceleration I get a big sreach sound when It shifts. Its a 96 Gt with close to 160K origianl everything minus a few bolt ons but stock tranny and all. Its old I know but well taken care of..... work your majic fells

haha dont really know what the spitting/sputtering could be..but do all the normal maintenance and see if that helps.

I know my auto does the the screech thing when it shifts. I thought it was normal :dunno:

I believe its just the pressure being released or something along those lines

Mine only does it when im on it hard and it shifts hard.

I had the sputtering problem with my 97. I changed the front O2 sensors and problem gone. Someone else suggested that a dirty MAF sensor could also cause that problem. Bosch O2 part # is 13127. same number for both sides.

 

[SN952NV]

well it just had new O2 sensors put in about a year ago from a previous problem dealing with a check engine light.. its a pretty nasty sound.. thats why I dont ever really autocross or anything anymore..

mine does the squeal to....
only when your accelerating right?
i have a shift kit in mine but its always done it before and after...
one of my friends said it may be the torque converter?

the sqweel when you shift is the belt slipping when the rpms change. Changed my belt to a gaterback and new idler pulley and problem fixed. On the sputter, clean the maf, iac, clean filter, new wires and plugs... thats all i can think

O and also, where are you in Charlotte, I'm here at UNCC

 

[SN952NV]

Your transmissions shouldn't be squeeling. Is this squeel accompanied by a flutter or slight vibration?

who knows...what would that mean if there was a flutter anyways?

Something squeels if I get on it in first than let off when its about to shift into second but theres still a lot of pressure built up when it shifts.

 

[1996mustangGT]

it was my serpentine belt...thanks to whoever said that...
lol i waited to long read in the garage about the adventure...
a word from the unwise....if your car squeals somethings wrong
:wall: :wall: :wall:

 

[SN952NV]

Thats exactly when It makes the noise.. its not coming from the tranny area but def seems to be from the belts.. ya it squeals readl bad when I acc. hard then back off... who knows. I need like 3K so can just take it to the shop and be like... fix it all

It would mean your torque converter is pooping in your transmission.

 

[voidfinger]

its your belts trust me... from exp.

 

[justinschmidt1]

is this even bad?

can I fix it cheap?

Im with you in the belt theory..it sounds like its comin from up there.

 

[Jrgunn5150]

If it's the belt it's the belt, you would feel a flutter (I would think) if it was the TC.

If it was the TC though, you could fix it as cheap as you are willing to pay for a new torque converter and trans flush. And it is indeed bad.

 

[justinschmidt1]

its the belt

 

[voidfinger]

lol see i'm telling people but no one believes me :blah2:
