I'm new to the this forum and figured I would give it a shot.

My truck started to make this noise that I just could not stand. It makes a clatter/ ticking noise while the engine is under load. I replaced the throw out bearing and it didnt change a thing. It also makes a knocking noise at idle.

If anyone knows what is wrong with it I would greatly appreciate your help.

Yes the oil is full and looks fine.

Here is a video of the noise.

Try holding the tension on the shifter and see if noise stops, I had to rebuild the top of my tranny because the forks were worn out causing it to clatter

Yes it was some bad spark knock. Retarded it a bit and it was quiet.
