 Subject: Weird click/gurgle sound!?
IP: Logged
Message:
Okay, so recently this sound developed on my 97 5.2. It's like a
gurgling sound that matches the RPM's of the engine coming
from behind the dash. At first I thought it was coming from the
dash itself, but then when I opened the hood and stuck my head
back near the distributor cap I could hear it somewhere around
there. I don't think it's a lifter, because they're making their own
little quiet tick tick ticks they have always done, and I don't think
the sound is coming from the heads. It's a really hard sound to
explain... like between a tick and a gurgle... Kinda like a tiny
diesel engine sound. The sound itself is more apparent in the
cab of the truck than in the engine compartment, which makes
me think it's something close to the firewall.
It also matches the frequency of the engine RPM's by getting
faster and slower accordingly...
Any ideas? (I know, my truck seems to be falling apart, but it's
my trooper!)

Distributer was completely changed out about 2,000 miles ago in a
tuneup. So, it's not the miles on that particular distributer I guess
you could put it. And yeah, I just ignore popeye because he is what
he is and thats all he'll be.

Okay, now I noticed there's an accented click within this noise
when I go over bumps. Could this all be just a nasty engine
mount? But then again, I still hear it near the Distributer cap, but
that is literally brand new. Maybe it is just a bad lifter.
This is why I was nervous about seafoam. Used it in the intake
manifold and now this happens...
