So what are the signs of maybe a bearing going out of my supercharger? I have a powerdyne 6lb unit and I hear a noise and am wondering what the signs are for a bad bearing.

 

Knocking at high or low rpms and somtimes they are not as bad at the right rpm. Most of the time its worse when engine is cool. Whats it doing?


EDIT I see I must having been drinking when posting to this, and have now noticed your talking about blower bearing

 

I had a Paxton go out and the blower just started whining louder and louder.. It never went out completely, but it became obvious something was wrong.. I sold it to a friend who worked at Jegs who had Paxton rebuild it for relatively cheap..

 

At 3K RPM and above it sounds like just the blower, but with a slight squeal, and I do not beleive that it's the belt. It seemed to go away for awhile, but it's back again. I haven't even had the Blower that long, so I don't know what i should do.

 

uuhhmm..... my p600b squealed for about 15 seconds the the pully fell of and got stuck in the fans.....haha....it turned out to be an oiling problem....smoked that blower...chauk that one up to the car gods...hehe
