I know it's Friday but I have a technical question and I have a feeling that
the outcome isn't going to be fun at all. ($$$)

I've owned my 90 Multivan since early 2002 and this list helped me as
through the "early years" and then over a year ago, my van was stolen.
Fortunately, it was recovered in about a week and without a lot of damage.
This list helped me get the parts I needed to put it back together.  Now,
I've come to a third stage of van ownership - my 18 year old son thinks it's
his car!  Actually, he loves the car and treats her well; as well as an 18
year old male can, I guess.  But he's oblivious.  Yesterday and today, I
drove it for the first time in a long while to get it smogged.  (That was an
adventure in itself.  The mechanic couldn't locate the "notch" to check the
timing and the gas cap didn't pass.)  But I did start noticing a noise...and
so here are the symtoms:

It is a deep hum that seems to be coming from the driver's front wheel well
area.  I feel a slight vibration that accompanies it.  I don't hear it/feel
it under about 25 mph and it does get a bit louder as I accelerate.  I
definitely hear it/feel it when I am veering to the left and not to the
right. (over 25)  I don't hear or feel anything when I slow down to make a
turn or when I'm maneuvering at low speeds. (Backing up/U-turns)

I have a mechanic who I, mostly, trust but I'd appreciate some learned
speculation so I prepare my mind and wallet!  Thanks for any input.
