3510 noise

tractorski · Oct 30, 2005

I have a Branson 3510 with about 20 hours on the meter. When I start it there is a loud clinking noise that comes from the back of the engine. after the engine gets to operating temperature the noise goes away. I have checked the engine oil level and it is fine. anybody heard of this before or got any ideas?

I do know that the cummins engine is a very loud engine when you first start untill it comes up to temp.
As it get colder out it will get louder at start up.
If you feel it is way to loud or just not normal call your dealer and see what her/she says.

I have talked to my dealer and they have been less than helpful, they just said run it until it breaks and they will fix it.
