2012 5.4.3 valve, 99k miles. Fully Ford tech serviced. Timing kit, plugs, head gasket , hoses belts, bearings, steering rack etc at 55k. Heater hoses, fluids etc at 99k. No codes or drivability issues.
A sound like a Model T accelerating (puckita puckita) intermitantly happens after its warmed up. Only while my foot is on the gas pedal or when the cruise control is doing same. Lift foot off pedal and sound goes away. More noticeable on road driving or when concrete is close by to echo the sound. In general it often makes me think I'm being passed by a diesel truck.
Only obtuse thing is this vehicle has never dripped condensate from the AC drain. AC always works great front and rear. I am gonna get the drain looked at but there is no gurgle or mildew smell.
I am gonna take this to my Ford mechanic that is the only person I let work on this truck. Besides me changing the oil and air filter.
Ideas?
