bad sound in my sc300
its a 92 with 197k mi. 5 speed.
the sound happens first when i start my car up in the morning or when the cars been sitting for some hours, and now has been happening every time i start it, but not as dramatic as the previous 2 instances. the sound...it sounds like a hollow like "kcheeeeaaaaauuu") and its a lot longer than if the cars been sitting for a couple hours. if i just drove it and stopped for like 10 mins, then turned it on again. its quicker, but the same thing.
at first i thought it was my starter (which probably describes the hollow like sound, then i discovered that maybe it has something to do with my blower motor. when the cars sitting overnight and i start it in the morning, and i put my a/c on after i start it, i can hear that sound for a while. then it goes away. wtf?? .... so my brother thinks its a pulley problem (i disagree, but i definitely need a timing belt though.) and he also thinks it might be the crankshaft... which i definitely dont agree with.
the most logical problem seems to be that the starter is worn and/or my blower motor is shot.
i really need help!!!! i can post a video tomorrow b4 i go to work.

i will check it, but idk how it could make the sound. it ran PERFECT before!
could it possibly be the blower motor?
and my dad whos a mechanic says its the starter. but he only saw it at a standstill, it happens sometimes while pulling out onto streets. and that happens when i have my ac on. i dont get it! but yeah ill check it!
