Subject:strange noise from???
From:Scott Wilson

i've been getting this metalic noise that sounds like
someone is feeding a pencil into a fan's blades
recently, only when i start out in first gear. thought
it had something to do with the clutch, but i can sit
there sometimes in neutral and just give it a tiny bit
of gas and i can hear it then too. if im above 2k rpm
i get no sound. when i parked last night i could hear
it rattlin away in nuetral, so i got out and looked
around but could not isolate the sound except that it
is coming from the rear by the engine. i changed and
went back out to investigate further but could not
duplicate the sound at that time...any ideas other
than tighten everything everywhere??? thanks
