I hear static in my car stereo speakers only when my car is running. I have an aux in jack in the front of my radio and I plug my ipod into it. But i just got my car back yesterday after it had the heads redone and it started doing this. It doesnt do it with CDs and it doesnt do it when the car is not running. Only when the car is running is when the static is there. Then i unplug the cord from the jack and it stops. It didnt used to do this. I checked the ground and i made sure it was grounded to the block. But what could've been unplugged during a valve job that could've been overlooked when it was being put back together? Anyone have any idea?

Maybe the type of spark plugs or wires they used?

Yep, I think, they just didn't ground something out right. They might have not cleaned the ground points before they reconnected them.
