 Subject: Wierd Noise At Idle
IP: Logged
Message:
When my truck is idling, a almost scrapping noise is coming from the engine bay.. It sounds like almost a "coat hanger" is knocking agaist something. A really high piched mettalic sound, which follows a rythmic pattern. It's only at idle, and every now and then. It's pouring rain so I can't go thrashing around under my hood, has anyone else had this problem?

I have 3 miles on my new motor it does the same. My bore was not round from the factory. If it is not a thud it sounds like a tipical dodge. Try to hear another dodge to compare.

I just had something similar happen. I replaced the water pump and the tensioner pully. All's fine now.

I had the same problem too, but two of my exhaust manifold bolts turned up to be broken, not mention my water pump was going out as well.

Yep, it's the water pump. Mine did the same thing until the pump went and was replaced with a new one.
