WHERE is it located? I have looked and could find where it is on the engine, also could not find anything in the bentley? So what am I looking for specifically?? Thanks Joe rae Steve@hoss.com wrote:

Joe:

If it sounds a lot like a lifter, but maybe louder; and sound like it's coming form the top or mid section of the engine, it may be the brake boost. The handy backup is driven by a push-rod. Rod wears, makes slack, starts to "tap".

When mine did it, several (reliable?) folks said I could simply unbolt the unit, take out the rod, and replace the unit. Did so about 75,000 miles ago. Haven't noticed a thing since it's departure . . .

? maybe ?

Best,

Steve
