the noise only appered after i took off the uim (only the top part) to re install a new oem fuel line with the fuel line adapter. im trying to figure how to post a vid. im thinking maby one of the orange gaskets didnt get seated right or pinched?

We all know you have plenty of Vaseline for your "camping trips" so I am sure you can spare some

I know, you don't strike me as the camping type. I was referring to 200, he is quite the outdoorsman and enjoys doing so with lot sof guns an Vaseline

so i didnt want to start a new thread but im still getting a wierd noise. it sounds like a faint turboish sound. it only happens under load and when i first step on the gas. i started when i removed my uim. i took out the fuel line adapter to rule it out (not that i thought it was the issue) took off the uim again to check gaskets, cleaned tb, and checked all vac lines. everything looks good but i still cant find the cause of this noise. i noticed at certain rpms (under load) with the right amount of throttle the noise will stay constant. ???? any ideas

on top of not finding this strange noise, now i need an ac compressor clutch. i recharged the system but i never use the ac and the clutch froze up and destroyed the belt.
