Thought it was tensioner, it wasn't removed all belts it still chirps (LOUD). Remove Harmonic balancer still chirps. If I put my stethiscope to any piece of metal on the engine i hear the chirp.
I thought maybe these have a tensioner on the chain and that my be chirping, but they don't.
If you come off Idle slightly it goes completely away. That tells me it shouldn't be mechanical. I sprayed wd-40 around the intake and brake booster to see if it could be a vacum leak. It was not.
I sprayed water on the driver side exhaust manifold and it went away once. But if I tried again it didnt do anything.
I think its a exhaust problem either a hager, donut or manifold gasket.
The sound is at a pitch were if your standing at the front it sounds like its a the front, the left it sounds like its coming from there and so on............
