Hey folks, been a long time right?? Yeah, my apologies for not
coming around more often.. See, the problem is when i come around here
i tend to spend alot of money :dontknow: :burnout: So while
i'm at school i'm trying to keep the spending to a minimum..
Anyways, here's the situation today when i got into my truck to turn it
on the truck started fine but the engine sounded horrible. I immediately
shut it off and checked to make sure that there was nothing under the
hood caught in the belts etc.. After this i turned the truck back on
and listened for the sound. The sound is almost like a knocking but
not? The engine was running normal other than this sound so i assume
i didn't break anything serious? I'm not really sure.. The sound seems to
orginate from either the 3rd or 4th back on the right side of the engine.
Keep in mind this morning i didn't have this sound when i started it and
i haven't driven it hard all day today. It almost sounds like i have a loose
header but whatever it is it just doesn't sound good.. If you would like
pictures, sound, etc.. I can try to get it but i'm at school with no tools
so i'm kinda screwed.. I might go out and buy a craftsmen set tonight
if need be.. Oh also, while driving back to my apartment i noticed the
oil pressure fluxuating from 50 psi idle to about 80 psi under light
acceleration.
Regards,
Andrew
