'03 & '09 Ram Exhaust leak vs Lifter Tick vs Rod Knock vs Injector Noise

In this episode I revisit the Rod Knock video Plus show you what an Exhaust leak sounds like and how it can sound like a Lifter Tick with other things

[jesuscesanto]

Good to see this man videos every once in a while straight up no bs I hope he’s doing well

[tedeisner]

Appreciate the blue collar man format. The technical videos are nice sometimes, but having a good ole boy talk truck is what I need sometimes. I made a video about the blazer and the zr2 model not having access to the rear glass actuator because there were no other videos about it. And I’m no mechanic lol but apparently it helped some folks out. Thanks dude

[terrycapehart]

Thank you sir and have a blessed day America

You da man. I was fortunate the broken exhaust stud fell out on the concrete when I took it apart. I used shorty headers with 5.4 liter ford stainless studs and cerrated nickel nuts to put it back together with oem gaskets. Never use aftermarket gaskets.

Great videos! Never read the comments section you’ll thank me later..you have relived my heart burn sir lol. I found out thanks to your vids it’s an….wait for it … EXAUST LEAK !! 🎊 💥 ..

[elliottbramschreiber]

Pretty sure you just diagnosed my exhaust manifold leak. 🤟

[mrrjameson]

thank you, very helpful video, much appreciated

[renemonique]

Great over view ... I have an exhaust leak 🎉

[bandjolyn]

Phewwww. Mine's an exhaust leak. Ticks for maybe a minute after start up, but then goes away quick. Also throwing a cat code, but those cats have around 40k miles on them. Thanks for the vid. Wanted to be sure it wasn't a lifter tick.

Thank you bro ur super easy to understand

[stayve.]

Damn I think you just confirmed for me that my 5.2 has an exhaust leak. Sounded just like yours and tick goes away once it warms up

[UARENOTTHATGUY]

Man. i got a 2001, 4.6 L 2v mustang GT. It ticks like this and goes away once I'm down the road for awhile. I figure if it was a rod knock it wouldn't go away. I guess it could be my lash adjusters/lifter. But I'm really leaning toward exhaust manifold.

When I was a kid grampa use to stick penny in and taps it in with hammer

[MrMcReeties]

Sucks we couldn’t really hear the exhaust leak because you were talking over it. Other than that man, solid vid.

[dailydriver]

thanks for the update. mine is not a tick. 80k on the jeep v6.
water pump and pulleys replaced.
it's not a constant knock. it will come and go at idle but u don't notice it at driving speed.
i've never made a video but maybe can or put a audio of it.

My mustang gt is ticking and biggg loss of power throwing a control module code nvram i think idk what it could be :(

[robinworkman]

We just started getting this ticking/rattling.onlt happens after the truck is warm, never at a idle.seems to be after about 15-20 mph. Took it in. They did what they call a preferred oil change and clean the injectors and something on the exhaust that was rusted through. They said it fixed the problem. I'm not sure what to think, I was thinking it had something to do with the the rimming chain but I don't onow

2011 5.7
Mine ticks on the drivers side on startup then quiets down. But when I go to drive it it ticks. Crazy part is I’ll pop it in park or neutral and rev it and it won’t tick at all!

[durhamdigital]

Unless it’s a jeep 4.0 where the lifters and the connecting bearings are next to each other

[davidfrench]

You may not be knocking anyone sir… but your crank shaft - IS.
