Man tonight I just noticed I had the top rear header bolt broken, became suspicious when I hear that ticking and had not been throwing any codes or running rough. My question is I'm all ready for a trip down south for about an hour drive back and forth, will driving the vehicle likes this hurt the engine?
Crap I mean I have the truck loaded and trailer hitched.

 

i think youll be fine. just watch it if it gets alot louder. you dont want alot of cold air getting to your exhaust valves, it can warp and weken them...
