the distributor appears to be correct. I bought a stethoscope and the noise seems to be coming from the block itself. I think I'm going to take it to a shop and have it diagnosed.
Thanks

I see you have a 1996, this thread is in the 1980-1986 forum.

I assume this noise happens at idle, while in Park. Does the engine idle smoothly, or look like it has a miss ?
