Hello
My 3.0 is making funny noises, most noticeably a clacking from the camshaft area it seems and a thumping in the exhaust. Have a look at the video. It ran like crap above 3800 rpm on the first time out this year, then it started running like crap at idle. I swapped out the plugs and it got better but now it picked up this thumping noise. I am thinking that the clacking might be the valves, but I am more concerned about the thumping. Is it ok or something major going on in the engine? Any suggestions to get this fixed?
Thanks
