Leak's/ Grinding sound
Today on my way home from work i was driving and when i would accelerate i would her like a tingy grinding sound comming from the engine. So i got home and i just got my new plug wires today too so i went to put them on. I pulled the plugs and they looked deacent but replaced them any way and cleanded the cap and rotor and replaced the PCV valve. I figured that would work. Well it didnt i still have tat grinding sound and i have no clue what it is. Then i was looking at stuff under the hood checking thingks out. Well then i saw a coolant leak its above the waterpump and behind it like you have a seal then a meltel plate then it looks liek another seal. and i was looking at the headgasket and the sewal felt mushy. So i checked the oil looks fine has no milky color to it. Any ideas what is wrong im gonna go friggin crazy. oh its a 1991 Camaro V-6 191 and has 178,000 miles on it

Basicly when i have the tensioner pulled all the way down i need another 1/4-1/2 inch to get it to slip over. What i dont understand is how that belt fit in the first place. I need it on so i can go to school tommorw i have 5 hrs of sleep if i go to bed now. I feel so stupid im almost about to just pull my underdrive pullys and put the stock crap back on for now.
