Not sweet.
Just swapped this motor in this January. Supposedly 119K from the junk yard.
Runs good, 18mpg on 31's, but has started sounding more and more like a diesel.
Dipstick is now coming up with tiny metal shavings. Ran a magnet by them and they are magnetic.
Trying to figure out where they are coming from. I don't believe the bearings are magnetic, are they?
My last motor succumbed to crank walk. Wondering if this one experiencing the same thing as well.
If so, I think that would leave the transmission as the culprit as I installed a new torque converter.
Argggg.
