Are you sure it's missing?
These obs actually run pretty rough. Even compared to a sd 7.3.

Compared to all of my buddy's 7.3's he has yes it's missing and after you drive it some and push the clutch in to come to a stop it drops down to like 400 rpms then back to idle

Yeah, we got sidetracked. Lol
Pretty much now you're at needing to be able to watch icp and ipr Duty cycle.
Oil is a good idea, if it hasn't been changed in awhile.
Also what oil is it?

Still at a good level?
I would try a different oil next change.
I don't know what it is, but seems a lot of people report rough running with Rotella. Then you have the select few that love it.

Pop the valve covers and watch to see if any oil is coming from the Injector bases.
Also the oil spill ports.
Can even unplug them one at a time to see if they're working.

Maybe just the way the sound came through, but sounds like a injector or rod knock. Lol
