Just wondering if anyone has had trouble with a tinny noise at about 1300 RPM's? I was told it could be the heat shields but found nothing lose. I also was told it could be the inspection plate on the front of the tranny. Any help would be appriciated. |

How did you inspect the heat shields?
Mine did the exact same thing. I actually could only pull one corner of the heat shield. That corner was the culprit. Wouldn't have found if I didn't pull on it.
A hose clamp "fixed" it.

Yea, I have the same noise. Really haven't looked in to it though. Monsta, what heat shields are you talkin about? Exhaust? I thought I read something about this on the FordExcursions.com but I can not find it. Sorry I am not much help. Hang in there maybe someone else will chime in and tell us how to fix it. Oh, and welcome to the club-neighbor. |

The shield is one of the many exhaust shields.
The offending shield on mine was on the Y-pipe coming from the driver's side bank of cylinders. This particular one is welded at 4 different places. The weld facing the front of the truck was broken, all the others were fine.
I would suggest that maybe you could crawl under and have someone you trust A LOT rev the engine to 1300 and see if you can locate it that way.
Beerman, it [i]does[/i] do it when in PARK too right? You know...with no load on the engine?

Yea, it still does it when in park. I would love to fix this as it is a pet pieve of mine to have little noises like that.
I'll give your idea a try Monsta and see how it works out. |
