Hi guys, need some help. I have a 1958 Farmall IH 460 diesel (d236) that i have a strange new sound coming from. I Was combining wheat today and a new strange sound is coming from the air intake cap. Sounds weird I know but that"s where its coming from. Tried listening all around the motor but diesel"s have there own rattles and clangs that I can't tell if I"m hearing louder noise around the lifters or not. It doesn"t seem to have a power loss to speak of, although if I had to guess I would say the motor is laboring a little. I just can"t seem to put my finger on it. Also, if I had to describe the noise that is coming from the air inlet, its sort of a glirp, glirp glirp with a low pitch clunk or knock. Its not like a knock in the motor, the noise is coming out of the air inlet, the one where the cap with a screen on the underside of the cap that"s located between the fuel cap and the steering wheel. It is an oil bath air cleaning system and the oil level is correct. The noise just came as I was combining wheat, it is directly related to the speed of the diesel engine, it speeds up as I increase the idle. It is in time with the firing of each cylinder. Doesn"t get louder or quieter whether its idling or running at high idle. I hope someone can help. I have lots of wheat to bring in, and my Farmall IH 460 (d236) diesel is my only tractor. I don't know why but I feel like its a stuck lifter. Not sure why I feel that way but just do. Does anyone know what this is for sure and if it is a lifter or what ever it is, can it be fixed even temporarily so I can get my wheat in and then address the issue. I expect 5 more days of combining and I Should be done. Thanks for any help Tod Michigan
