Pretty cool, I think we may have discussed this here before but? lol anyway...Sounds like a valve is smacking on either the piston or something....

10/8/1871- the great Chicago fire. Approximately 250 people were killed in the fire; 98,500 people were left homeless; 17,450 buildings were destroyed along with the original Emancipation Proclamation.

I heard this is caused by high exhaust temps causing soot in the particulate filter to catch on fire. I guess this happens if your engine is over fueling or are consuming oil. The fuel or oil gets caught in the particulate filter and when the temps get high the fuel or oil ignite and you get a nice flame.

Diesel engines do not tick or knock that loud normally. It sounds like the valve train isn't getting lubricated or a really bad piston slap. Judging by the unspent fuel I'd say its a valve train issue. Does anybody have a copy of the recall notice?

Thats the normal sound for a diesel and Im sure a camcorder makes it sound worse. A Cummings that was put in Ram trucks late 90's will make that new Ford sound like its purring like a pussy cat.

The new cummins are MUCH MUCH better but man did those older ones KNOCK! We had one at a place i used to work. I was our service truck for going on road calls. I had to shut it off to talk on the phone while i was in the truck just so i could hear.
