i have noticed a wierd noise from my engine.
just before crimbo my power steering pump blew.99% sure its it.havnt got round to fixing it yet.but thats not my question.
as the car hasnt turned a wheel in around 4 weeks ive been going out and letting it idle 4 a while just 2 keep it running.but since the pump has blew it has been making a weird noise.i never noticed it before the s/p blew.but that doesnt mean it wasnt there
when i give it a few revs (mayb 2/3thousand) and let it off, as soon as the revs start to drop maybe after a second or so it will let a carck/grinding/light crunching noise out of it.its a quick noise.not prolonged.it wil also do this the odd time when just idleing.but very rarely! there is no other rattles/crunching/grinding out of the engine. sorry but thats the best i can describe it.any help will be greatly appriciated!!
many thanks
