Wj 4.7 02 tapping under load

[drmadcat]

Any idea of what i should check my WJ has a tapping when under load (from drivers side) nothing when at idling or revving engine at ideal only when i drop down a gear when accelerating.

Its just has an engine rebuild 2000 klm ago

It's a slim chance and I'm only throwing this out here just in case it's not actually the engine making the noise but something else.

It happened to me, I misdiagnosed, went on for a while, and cost me some oil to end up working out it wasn't the engine after all. Turns out when I fitted the snorkel I made something rub on the chassis by not putting it back properly.


Here's what happened to me, in the 'Oils ain't Oils' thread --->>> http://www.ausjeepoffroad.com/forum/...39#post1386839

Yours is on the driver's side though, so it probably isn't the same thing that happened to me.

Just a thought.

Hope you work it out.

Exhaust manifold leak. Mine's doing it now. Motor was out recently for a rear main seal and I think the exhaust needs tightening up on the manifold again.

Check the easy stuff first ; )
