Rapp'N Jeep or Exhaust noise?
Ok here's the deal, Either MC Hammer is under my hood or I have an exhaust leak or crack.
Jeep runs fine and is smooth.
Changed oil and heard what sounds like a bad rocker.
Put pry bar on valve cover and all accessories and everything is a sweet smooth humm.
Does not increase with RPM's and does not make noise under load.
Plugged tailpipe and could not hear of feel a leak from the top.
Can that tinny little header make such a sound?
I'm ready to rip the lifters and rockers off and pushrods.
I hope the 4.0 doesn't have those aluminum rocker bridges like AMC's of past. Wait maybe I do as it's a simple fix.

I'm going to take some video of it. It's strange.
Had no time to deal with it because of no sleep and the dog ran after a ground hog and pulled my mother down and I'm sitting at the hospital to have her wrist xrayed.
The Jeep ran good getting her here.
