Re: Weird sound - throwout bearing? 140-160 1972

I haven't been able to recreate the sound in neutral. I'm trying to think of anything it could be but I'm coming up blank - of course I am hardly a mech. It sounds as though something is "winding down" just with the sound I tried to describe earlier.

I give it gas, the engine revs, then I hit the clutch and of course let off the gas so the engine stops revving, but you hear a zzzzzz/whirring sound winding down. Could it be something in the engine?

I checked and I need a new tranny mount anyway...
