Re: Hissing sound coming from engine bay
This may be your idler pulley. you can confirm this by taking a very large screw driver and hold the blade end against the center that is not turning and hold your ear to the handle of the screw driver while the engine is idling. Be very careful! This is an old school method that mechanics have used for years. My grandfather taught me this about 35 years ago. Or if you are a doctor you can use your stethoscope.
