Message:
I have a 93' SC V6, sometimes when I have the radio down I hear a sound that sounds like pop corn popping (but very muffled, not loud at all)coming from my dash, this doesn't always happen, more or less sometimes, what is it? Oh and I sometimes here very breif "squeeking" sounds coming from the front of my engine, anyone know what that is? It almost sounds like a belt that's chirping? I'm begining to thank I have a parakeet under my hood that is popping popcorn! Any ideas?

Does it sound more like a quick rattle ? If you only hear it when the engines cold or near the begining of acceleration it could be that you have exhaust rattle or a heat shield has come loose and is rattling. And the belt squeeking .. I have that too... You can get belt lube and spray it where ever you hear it coming from.. and that should get rid of it ?
Hope that helps..

Hey Paul the only vehicles that I have ever seen that have a vacuum pump for the cruise control are supercharged engines as the vacuum that is created in a normaly aspirated manifold is enough to do the job.
