Strange noise
« on: March 31, 2008, 07:47:17 PM »
Well, I got my Cherokee 12/28 and it's had this noise while the motor is running. Sounded like the water pump or ps pump may be going(bearing-wah-wah-wah sound). Well today the weather was finally nice enough for me to dig into in it farther. A friend used his stethescope(sp) tool to pinpoint the noise. It is coming from the crank pulley/timing cover area? the pulley has a slight wabble to it. Have any of you guy's ever had this happen? What can/would it be?

Had a power steering pump pulley go bad and it did the same thing.  Can you get the pulley assembly?

The power steering pump doesn't seem to be making noise. It's coming from the crank pulley.... Never ran into something like this?
