I have been hearing a slight high pitched wistle from time to time from my engine bay. I figured, ok... figured a hose had a leak or something. Ignored, thinking I would look at it later.
Well, it's not much later, but the whistle has become MUCH louder now. It seems to increase in pressure, volume, etc... when I accelerate, and I can hear it drop back as I decelerate.
Popped the hood, and even at idle it was getting louder, and then softer as I stood there trying to find where the noise was coming from. Front of the engine is best I can tell..
Stopped the car, checked the belts. Both look fine, and feel fine to me, though I am a novice at this, so I could be poorly judging.
Hoses look old, but not in bad shape.
Anyone have an idea what could be causing this? Where I should be looking?
I have a 76 with the air pump intact, BTW...
Thanks!
