    And if you don't have a stethoscope a section of wooden broom handle works quite well.

    I've got a big old Craftsman screw driver that's almost 2' long, 1/2" blade and an ear against the end of the handle works good to find noises, too. I'm hoping that Jerry's idea of a wiped lobe on the cam is not right, but that's a really good possibility.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    Whatever works. I've always used wood to eliminate the possibility of getting shocked or shorting something out and I've had too many vehicles that didn't have fan shrouds and sometimes I can be a klutz.
