So, the M1009 has been running great, changed the oil, air & fuel filters. All other fluid levels are good. But the weather has been below 30 degrees for the past 3 weeks. This morning, when I started her, she fired right up, but sounded pretty rough. Lots of engine rattle and growl. With the throttle pressed, everything is smooth, but when idling, it sounds like a washing machine agitator is rotating on the driver's side of the engine in time with the RPMs. Any ideas? Is this just due to the cold, or should I be looking for some kind of a problem? The noise is more apparent from inside the cab than from standing outside looking under the hood. A cursory glance under the hood didn't reveal any shuddering loose components, but I didn't have time to really dig in, as I had to get to work.
