7.3 Noisy at idle
1991 7.3 overhauled a year ago. IP started having to be watered to get it to start hot. At the same time it started to really rattling at idle. Replaced IP and problem idle noise is still there. Come off idle it sounds good runs good. Oil pressure is good temp is good. Seems to be noisier underneath and and in the torque converter area. TC nuts are tight it is a c6. Any ideas folks

Did the tone of the engine change? If not, you're doing something wrong.
It might not change your clatter, but it should change the engine tone.
Make sure you are pushing on the bottom of the lever, or pulling on the top.
Not sure about the lever? If you push the throttle lever towards full throttle(or have someone step on the gas), you'll see the lever on the side move in and out.

here is another one, but like the one above they do not say if it came off a C-6 or an E4OD.
and i don't know if there is a difference or not.
