I suspected that too, until I had an oil filter on there (Believe it was a WIX or maybe a Purolator Boss) that I ran for an OCI and didn't hear anything on start-up. Then I recall reading a post Shurkey(?) made about there being a TSB about the very same issue with K trucks. The engine does have about 190k on it now, but still doesn't smoke or burn oil, runs damn fine.I suspect that it's not the oil filter causing your clatter. Seems like old motor stuff to me.
Yes, that's the one I was using. Then I switched back to AC Smelco. I ran the P. One filter for an OCI, didn't like how pinched the slits were for oil going into the engine, you know, where a fella dumps oil in to prime the oil filter. Thank you for listing the part numbers, I will try either one again and (hopefully) report back.exactly which WIX filter number have you been using ? The one with a short-lived ADV ? Which WIX ?
* if you've been using WIX 51036 (18 x 1.5mm thread) --- try Purolator ONE PL24011 (BLUE) or Purolator BOSS PBL 24011 (BLACK) they both supposed to have a silicone ADV --- the red one does Not.
