Sounds like it's just the fan clutch. Mine does that so it's nothing to
worry about.

Subject: DML: 4.7 Groaning Noise on Startup

Dakota Afficianados:

My 4.7 liter intermittently takes about 1-2 minutes to "warm" up.
Meanwhile
the engine (not tranny) sounds like a 1956 pickup. It simply "sounds"
very
rough and very noisily groans. Anyone know why this is? If you know, a
direct email to lrromer@yahoo.com in addition to a post would be most
appreciated.

Thanks,
Larry
