98 1500 mystery tapping
While towing a small boat my 98 v6 1500 start making this mysterious tapping noise. It's coming from the engine however at idle is silent. Now not towing this tapping has remained. It generally picks up above 40 mph and is then noticeable. The truck has about 155000 miles. I recorded a short video on the highway to give you guys a better idea. The tapping is more subtle and doesn't sound like knocking. More of a mechanical tapping if that makes sense. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like an exhaust leak... Or a zip tie in the fan... Or a possible lifter tick.
Check the exhaust manifold closely for any sings of leakage. |
