Looking closer at it today, it looks like my TB is cracked. I'll send a pic as soon as I figure out how.

Talking Re: Squeal

Last update: It's fixed! My baby runs! She makes NO strange noises! Praise the Lord! Thank you God! Thank you guys for your input!
When I took the old throttle body off, the lower drivers side nut and stud stayed put. The whole corner was broken off. Part of it had a bit of soot on it so I'm assuming it was at least cracked for quite some time. The funny thing too is last year when I bought the car it idled quite rough. In the paper stack that came with it there were several receipts listing the problem as poor idle. Now that I've done all this work the idle is smooth as a baby's butt! I haven't even adjusted the IAC or the TPS yet.
Like I said above, thank you guys for your input and thank you LORD!

I took "the Beast" out the other day and got the .....scared out of me. My right foot "accidently" went to the floor with the accellerator caught between the floor and my foot. Well, let me tell ya', that vehicle took off like a bat out of hadies! I think it has more power now than when I bought it last year.
