My engine is making a squeak squeak squeak with engine rpm, more rpm, more squeak! I didnt change anything on it, and i pulled plugs one at a time to see if that would do anything. Cant work it out, sounds like its coming from the middle of the head. Help!!!!!!!!

Take off the rocker covre and check your rocker gear - sounds like it's a bit dry/worn.

Could be water pump, alternator or belt. Take the belt off and see if the squeak disappears. Barry

Could it be a mouse? feed it some cheese. He could be hungry....I agree with Barry, I reckon it's a dry as buggery water pump bush. If you don't run coolant, the bearing/housing gets involved in some nasty galvanic corrosion. You'll probably need to replace it, but some WD40 will give you an idea of whether thats the cause. I've seen waterpumps completely siezed with the white Aluminium Oxide crap (It's normally also got a red IronOxide colour to it also, courtesy of the engine block)

Excuse my ramblings.

Chris.

oh yeh, i forgot about those bloody mice. They are a common problem with 1200's....

make sure it's english cheddar though...coz any other cheese wont stop them squeaking....they are fussy little buggers....

maybe putting a turbo on will stop it squeakin 'ey simon?
