Hi,
   I didn't know what a sync motor sounded like until I heard mine 
with sagging voltage and it dropped out of sync.
when you modify a motor and it doesn't sync you will here a hunting 
sound ( like a heavily loaded washing machine on wash or washing 
machine pump) when the motor tries to lock. This comes from speeding 
up a bit then dropping back to non sync.
Sorry I cant help more than that but it's a layman terms explanation.
Cheers
Colin
