bowhay....top it off and see if the noise goes away...could be a flywheel or it could be the front pump in the trans....sounds like it might be the pump....but wont know until it is topped off.

bowhay this may sound crazy, but you may want to check the alternator, i had a bearing go bad in one, it sounded like all the bad stuff... wrist pin bearings etc, just something to check, good luck.

I like the hose-a-scope deal.
