Was this the first time you had changed the oil in Cecilia since you've owned that truck? You said the oil was real black, which is fine, but when it drained out, was it oily and free moving or was it thick and gloppy?

You also said "running for 100 yards". Does it make the same exact noise when the truck was under power and moving during the 100 yards, as it makes when it just sitting still and idleing?

Can you tell if it is a thump that seems to happen at a regular paced interval and increases as the rpms of the engine increase or not?

We'll have to wait for the audio as that would tell alot I hope.

Foley.
Hey Foley!
The oil was thick and black as sin, but oily and moving around.
The I can't tell if it makes it when it's moving. It's hard to hear inside the cab.
The thump is at a regular interval. I can't tell if it increases with RPM due to the loud sound Cecilia makes without a muffler. :/

Roger that!
It is less loud now that I put the zinc additive in there. I went ahead and ordered the Archoil stuff too just to see if it changes things.
