May 7, 201510 yr Found my morning tick. Bolt was snapped off on my exhaust manifold. Thanks for that. I have a tick (louder when cold), under even the slightest load, took a look at the manifold and the furthest manifold bolt is gone. And that's where the EGR port is, so besically it's like 2 ports don't have a bolt. I sure hope that's the culprit. Figures that when I build a new downpipe, I can take off the turbo, manifold, change the bolt and tap the manifold for an EGT sensor. Same one on mine, was surprised it didn't do it all the time. Glad it wasn't in the valvetrain....in particular since I am about to throw some more air at the motor. Yup, I sure hope it's that. I see no sign of smoke next to the bolt. But I've seen pics of LS broken manifold bolts and none of them was smoky. Pretty unusual for engines like mine to have valvetrain noise. They rack up in excess of 500k miles in Sprinter vans.
May 7, 201510 yr CAN NOT WAIT TO GO TO MEXICO!!!!Where? Between Cancun and Tulum.It's an AI resort, but it's a small on with pretty much non developed beach north and south of it (except for a few beach bars) really close to where they have done Corona commercials. My favorite thing from there I can't recommend you do. I love Mexican street food....better than their fucking restaurants. Although everyone that goes with me always gets montezuma's revenge. I'd likely try it.
May 7, 201510 yr Fuel pump went out in the truck on the way to work today...... Luckily a switch rubber mallet to the tank has got me going again for now.
