Ok, so that was kind of the good news/bad news reply... My motor
didn't used to sound too bad either. When it started sounding REALLY
bad it scared the pee out of me. (Not literally) It is so bad that
when I was doing 70 I heard it and pulled the car over to the side of
the highway to find out what was wrong. I think the metal housing made
it sound worse than it really is but it is loud!
I will let you know if I have any luck...
