diesel noises

[digitaldust]

how would one know if a white diesel had a rod going ? how does the know play out what kind of knock would it be

gears are they straight cut ? should i be hearing a light wow wow wow syncro sound?

hissing from the dash is this normal fix going on here ?

i build pressure for air 0 - 100 lbs in like 1 -1.5 min
m109a3 with 16,500 miles and 572 hrs clean truck

Hissing from dash, you have a leak in your air lines somewhere.

If you are concerned about the internal workings, easiest thing to do is cut the oil filtres open to see if there are "sparkleys" in the media.

Use a cut piece of garden hose as a stethascope to listen to the engine running, move it around to focus on the different areas of the engine.

Have you checked the wiper knob?? It will hiss.... People screw with these things all the time....

It's pretty easy to pull the pan, and check for loose rod/main bearings. Jack up the frame of the truck some, letting the axle drop, to gain enough room to remove the pan.

I hope so...mine does the same thing.
I think the info is in the TMs somewhere but I can never remember what the TMs say when I am driving in the truck

Make sure its not worn / loose hood hinges, mine sound like I'm about to throw a rod...
