Unscrew the oil filter, empty and fill with Lucas.

Had an engine that had a wrist pin tap. After a Lucas treatment it was good for about 800 miles.

I put 10k on that engine before I sold the truck, drove 110 miles a day and every tap sounded like it was about to grenade.

Well. I found the source.
Got up early.
Did a leak down.
Pop tested all the sticks.
Everything was fine
New o rings
New return hoses.
Changed the oil
Fired her up and she quieted down.
Threw it a few revs, and she started to stutter a bit.
Ran it for a bit
Smoke cleared up.shut it down to do a few more things. And a rush of coolant came from under the truck.

So, to everyone that mentioned MMO,
Do you think it’ll help?? Lol
Block #2. Destroyed!

And your sure it wasn't like this before you changed the oil?

Probably from putting that tester on and giving it too much pressure.
