engine prob
my engine is making a whistling noise when ever i accelerate in every gear, can anyone tell me what this may be. I have never heard the noise until three weeks ago.please help it is qiet annoying
"intake at 1/4 throttle" = pressing on the gas 1/4 way down, sucking more air in the intake
Get a friend to diagnose the problem. Put it in neutral, and let the friend give it some gas while you try to find out where it is coming from. If it is the intake, you can probably just fix it with some superglue or something :-p (ghetto fix). (intake should never get too hot anyway)
If you still cant' find the leak, try spraying some brake cleaner around. The RPM should jump up if that stuff find a way into the engine. Just don't aim cleaner sprayer at the air inlet :-p
Hope that helps..

Something else you can check is the transmission fluid. When the trans get low it kinda makes a car sound like it is supercharged. Usually only does it when u are accelerate and gets quiter in higher gears. A real easy way to check this is to put it in netural and rev up if it whistles it not the trans. Then put it in 1st and start to drive and if it is whistling I would check the fluid.
