Whatcha guys think?? **Updated with pics**
So I have the car in my sig which I drive maybe 2-3 days a week.
Cleaning off snow today while it's running and it starts making this squeeking noise. I pop the hood and there is smoke coming from the bottom pulley and it looks like it's rotating very slowly. I saw maybe 1-2 sparks fly as well.
I was thinking it was maybe the optispark...
If it's any help I've had a bad grounding issue since updating all my audio equipment - I did most of the big 3 but did not do the grounds yet.
Clearly I'll have to put her up and take a look this weekend but figured I'd take any suggestions before I do so.
Done a lot of research as far as optispark replacement and I feel confident to do it but is there any write up on how to take off the front end to make this easier?
Got the car up today and this is what I found....so...what the hell is that fluid?
