[QUOTE="JD3020, post: 663041, member: 373"] Didn't swap the t-stat, ended up taking it for a drive and it finally opened. Got the hood on, and so far its running alright. I've got a slight oil leak at the rear of the engine, i'm thinking its the pan. I'll just have to clean all that up back there and cover it with RTV one day. But i may have another issue. When my truck is in park/neutral i've been hearing a very, very faint noise from the converter area. In the truck you can't hear it, but out of the truck you can. Really hard to describe how it sounds. Put it in gear and it goes away. The truck is driving/shifting fine, no noises/vibrations/anything at all. But when i shut it down i get a very harsh rattle, and it does shake the whole truck fairly harsh. Was that way before as well, haven't figured it out yet. But i'm not sure if this new noise is nothing, flexplate bolts loose, or a converter going out. Or it could be as simple as the exhaust rubbing on something. . The downpipe may be loose at the flange to the rest of the exhaust, so i'll check that out tomorrow. Like i said the truck drives fine, makes no noise in gear, and has no noticeable issues. It also hasn't gotten any louder at all, been the exact same noise. And actually tonight when i took the video, i heard no noise from the converter area when the engine was idling. Everything was cold as its been parked for a few hours. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGawl2L-qnM[/url] [/QUOTE]
