1. point rubbing block on dizzy cam
2. loose metal around alternator 3. Lots of blowby causing "squeak/tweet" from pressure being relieved at rear main seal. 4. Bad alternator bearing. 5. Mouse in squirrel cage blower not being fed. 6. Slipping alternator drive belt. |

Check your valve clearances they should both be the same on the 1.8l. the book says 0.6
