Is this noise what I think it is? (Lifter Tick on 2008 Bullitt) Below I have attached a sound clip of a ticking noise coming from my engine. Most likely it is a lifter tick? I do not smell any exhaust fumes, so it does not seem like an exhaust leak. Plus, this seems to be coming from the...

Hey all! I have a question about my crankshaft damper. I've had my car for a few years and i've always noticed that when I drive on the freeway, my engine sounds like it isn't running smoothly. I did some research and people suggested the crankshaft damper. I started it up and looked at it and...

I have had a very loud tick coming from the driver's side front cylinder (#4) for about 2 months now. It takes a minute or 5 for the engine to start making the noise. It is definitely around or in cylinder #4, my Dad and I pin pointed it with a stethoscope. I know it is not the famed exhaust...

My engine is making a knocking noise. Been told it's probably a rod knock, not by a mechanic or anything, just people. The noise goes away when accelerating, also been told a rod knock doesn't do that. Trying to get an idea what I might be looking at if I take it in. Noise is coming from...

I know that describing a sound over the internet is very hard but I'll do my best to describe it. My 2001 mustang gt with 4.6 has what I would describe as a "ticking" or like a "clicking". Its almost has a pattern like tap tap tap, tap tap tap, tap tap tap in very quick succession. I can only...

Hello I have a 1996 3.8 liter V6 automatic Mustang that is having some problems. Recently my car started making a loud knocking noise when I start it up and while it drives. I've checked the oil and it is milky. Also there is some oil getting into my coolant lines. When I first purchased the car...

Hi Guys, I have a ’10 GT with a strange noise that I only hear when I get off the gas to shift gears or if I rev the engine when in gear. It’s a winding noise, sounds like a rope retracting back into the mower after it is pulled out. The noise only lasts 1 – 2 seconds as the rpm comes down...

Hello all, I have an interesting situation. Just rebuilt a 302 and I dropped it in to start it. Initial timing was at about 8 deg BTDC. So when I attempt to start it it runs rough an only runs when I keep giving it gas. It dies when it drops to idle. That I attributed to timing or perhaps some...

I've got a 94 5.0 and whenever the engine decelerates it makes a weird combination of hissing whistling and a blowing noise and its actually starting to do it when I start the car. I don't have any loss of power or anything but its really annoying when I try to get on it lol so if anyone can...

I thought my son's 2002 V6 3.8 had a bad water pump bearing. We started to replace water pump, but decided to remove the serpentine belt and verify it. with no accessories spinning, there is a high pitched "Chirp" coming from the crank area. Any ideas?

So I recently just got my 1968 302 running and I ran into a problem almost immediately. At first when I started it, the idle was just rough and after adjusting the timing, idle speed and air fuel ratio it ran relatively well. About 10 min into the initial break in while it was idling, I heard a...

Hey guys, first post in what I'm sure will be an ongoing relationship. I recently picked up a 1 owner 66 289 Mustang in premo shape. Shes a bit ugly at the moment but that will change as time goes by. The 289 has a rebuild with about 15k on it. Its been sitting for a couple of years only...

Hello all, new to the forums! I have a 2005 mustang GT Auto with minor modifications. I have been noticing a strange sound coming from the engine at idle. It's not very loud and it goes away completely when the car is either in gear or if the rpms go up from idle. It sounds like a click at...

Ok, ive explained my story too many times, so here is the quick version. Completely rebuilt my engine. Upgrades in signature. Had machinist rebuild long block. Something went wrong, fixed it (took top end off including heads, and reinstalled) and put engine back together. Drove for 100 miles...

:headscratch: I have a '98 mustang automatic V6 3.8L. I am hearing a whining noise in the engine. It is more profound when the radio is on than when the radio is off. The whining noise increases and decreases as the gears shift. I tested my battery and alternator and the readings are all in...
