Noise coming from distributor?

[stock88]

The noise is on my buddy's 1990 LX, it sounds like a whine or a squeak coming right from the distributor just after start up. It usually lasts until the car warms up, about 10-15 minutes. I am guessing a bent shaft on the distributor? The car runs fine, but the noise seems to be more common lately.

Thanks for any info.

It's probably the bearings in the distributor. Should replace it before it seizes and stops the oil pump. Or worse.

Mine does the same thing but only after an oil change and it just does it for 20-30 seconds.i was told it was the bearing also.

OK, I'll tell my buddy to bust out the master card for the MSD distributor! Thanks for the replies.
