faster the tapping sound also goes faster. Only happens
on first time start up. Antbody else have this problem?
Please advise.
It does change frequency with engine speed. I read that someone mention using this Marvel Mystery Oil,should i use it?
I found new "evidence',this stops when the oil gauge reaches
210 ,which is normal? I need more advice from somebody please?

The tapping is a regular,every morning and yes the sound goes faster when the acelarator is pushed down. I really need some suggestions! Please! :confuse:
tappin sound that would only be present on a first start up
and would last about 30 minutes. Well this got progressively
worse where every start up I would hear this sound! The sound still goes away at 1500 RPM. I took it to the Jeep dealer,they said it was an emission leak,needed new hoses! Another mechanics told me to live with it! I went to 4 mechanics that told me everything from piston slapping to my lifters! The solution. I went to another small shop. This gentleman worked 20 years for Jeep. He knew right off the bat what it was! Now guys and girls if you have this tapping sound like mine ,check to replace your EVAP PURGE SOLENOID!
Thing runs like a top! Thanks to all that gave me suggestions! Nice site!

mostly when going over small bumps, sounds like interior panels, head liner or rear hatch
I installed some long sheet metal screws in side panels, this helped reduce the noises.
has anyone replaced or fixed this problem without going to the dealer?
Did you find out the problem with your jeep. I had the same problem. I have since changed the motor mounts, transfer case, and both front end barons. Talk about getting ripped off, it's still there. Very weird, when I let off the gas it make the noise in the front drivers side under the hood. It sounds like it's in the front axle.
My Jeep is a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
I hear a hissing and/or whooshing sound as soon as I start the engine. The sound seems to be coming from under the dash by the brake booster.
When I press down on the brake pedal at any time, the hissing/whooshing sound stops. But when I release the brake pedal, then step on the gas pedal, the sound starts again.
The braking system works great.
Any advice???
Please help. Sure would appreciate it!!!
I'll see if I can find that link....
[edit] ah, here it is - worth a shot:

What did the dealer say? Did they check the brakes for you?

the mechanic says some cars just have noisy fuel pumps. well he replaced it with a brand new one, so why is it still noisy?
