Alrighty,
I finally got to working on my brick. New timing belt, water pump, and I got the alternator to sit straight again. Unfortunately, the coolant pipe that goes into the back of the water pump is leaking a little bit due to pitting I hope. I took it off and made a big mess once already to re-seat it and it still leaks occasionally. None of these things really had to do with the original problem though. So back to that. The car starts a little sometimes. One time it didn't start at all and I had to jump the starter with the dip stick. It had this problem once before which had to do with the connections at the battery. So even though all that looks clean and tight I will go through that again. Once running and warm it sounds great but it still occasionally idles high. My biggest mystery though is a noise around the throttle body when I crack the throttle. It is kind of hard to describe. It sounds kind of like someone sucking through a straw and then it stops suddenly when I close the throttle. It is not constant and it definitely is not the fuel regulator or the vacuum line to the heat controls. It is pretty loud. The wifes 245 does not make that noise. Any ideas if something around or in the throttle body would make such a noise?
