"Howling Sound", 1991 Venture Royale


Recommended Posts

My 1991 Venture Royale makes a "howling" sound under light load. It goes away on deceleration and stronger acceleration. Does it in all gears. Sounds almost like the sound straight cut gears make. Steady sound, not warbling or oscillating. Any suggestions where to start looking? Roughly 50K miles. My other Ventures do not do this.

That sounds like the Gen 2 gear whine everybody seems to think is caused by the clutch basket gear.  My Gen 1 transmission (only 6k miles) is fairly quiet unlike my Gen 2.  The Gen 2 has a loud whine/chirp at a certain rpm and almost all Gen 2s have that annoying whine/chirp.
