2650 magnuson supercharger

I was cleaning my engine and I think I accidentally got some foam engine cleaner on my air filter and now my supercharger is making a weird noise. I’m not sure what to do next. Im Thinking I might need to either buy new bearings and a supercharger coupler. I do t even know where to begin with this. And advice?

Unless you directly sprayed the air filter with a decent amount of liquid I would doubt that was the case. Post up a video clip of the engine running with the blower noise when you get a chance.

Bearings are in a sealed gear case at the back of the blower.

That's coincidental...no way that would cause a bearing failure.

I just posted a video. So I took the supercharger belt off and it still
Made the noise. So it’s not the supercharger. I started to think back and the noise started after I added E85. When I first added the e85 the flex fuel sensor adjusted it to e50 driving for like 2 minutes it went down to E42. Now I’m thinking bad fuel maybe or bad injector not sure.

more than likely you got the engine cleaner on the belt. And has dried the belt out. to verify spray a little lubricate on the belt W/D 40 would be fine just a small amount while the engine is running. if the noise changes or goes away that's your problem. change the belt.
