Little help please
My engine is sounding a little weird, its making a lot of noises that it shouldn't be making, its squealing. Im pretty sure its not the belts, someone mentioned to me something about a valve tap or something like that??? I dispise this sound, it sounds like crap. Sorry didnt know where else to put this post, but there is a carb question so it should be alright. My car is acting weird with idling, its not working properly, its idling from 5-10, whichever it feels like doing, and its starting to stall sometimes. Im going to adjust the idle screw, but if thats not it, what could it be??? Im getting very frustrated with all the money im putting in, and whenever something gets fixed, 5 other things start happening, what the hell is wrong with my car?!?!

Squealing is either a bad/loose belt or bad power steering pump.No carb problem I have ever came across squealed...your noise is not carb related.
