Hey;
A few weeks ago when I started my D-17 gas I had a loud rapping in it that lasted 5-10 seconds and then went away. Oil pressure seems okay. I thought a rod or something was bad. Now, I don't seem to hear it. So I put a mechanics stethascope in all areas of the block and hear what is to me, normal mechanical sounds.
So what do you guys think is the deal with this? I know that these fine older tractors made more noise with the solids in it, but any ideas?
Thanks a bunch
