slight wine from engine bay i have a 2000 z28 i purchased a month or so ago, car has ran perfect untill this. There is a slight whine coming from the engine compartment. It raises as rpms raise. Its not too loud, it almost sounds like a very mild supercharger whine. I know on occasion my fuel pump has made a little bit of sound, but only for like a minute max. I dont think would have to do with that, could it? What do you think it would be?

i was planning to take a better look at it today, although it wasnt doing it for awhile... then it did it again for a little bit, it sounded more like a whistling type whine. possibly a vaccum line leak? i will also check into some of your guy's suggestions next time it does it. thanks for the help

mine was the same way. take a ratchet or similiar long metal tool and just listen around at things on the serpentine system. try the belt tensioner, then the a/c compressor, etc. that'll usually help. anything extremely loud will prove to be the problem.
