Hello,
Obviously, figuring out were the noise is coming from will help with finding the reason. Real off the wall but something I have seen in some 9000 up to 1995 is that they like 10w30 oil. Found this out about the turn 2000 when the shop I was working in switched over to 5w30 as the default oil. We put it in a 1992 9000 and it sounded like it had an engine knock. We switched it back over to 10w30 and quieted down. He is still quiet and still running fine now. Good Luck, Bernie at George Riggin Specialty Automotive
