Loud High pitched sound! Help me out! ------->

I have a pulsating squeak noise that gets louder and higher pitched as the throttle is increased.

I checked the belt....

The sound seems to be coming from around the Dist. or somewhere under the Plenum...

This is strange also, when under strong acceleration the noise dissappears. It is only when you slowly increase the throttle, or leave it at a moderate position that it makes noise.


Help me out! I have to drive a long way on wed! I dont want to be stuck on the side of the road like all the rustangs I've seen.

thanks!,
Daniel

How are the two vacuum lines that go to the back of the plenum?
