What is this noise when I blip the throttle?

    I believe that it has something to do with the emissions pump pulley or whatever that thing is but I'm not 100% sure. Let me know any ideas or if you've run into this problem.

    @CamKenyon Welcome to fordfullsize.com

    From the video it sounded worse on the driver's side.
    Those smog pumps are priced near a Benjamin after core
    charge.

    Def a bearing on one of the drive accessories.
    A mechanics stethoscope could help narrow it down
    by placing the end on each accessory and blipping the throttle.

    The auto parts store that has "Free Loan-a-Tool" program
    may have one to use. Call first for availability.

    Harbor Freight has them for $5
    NAPA has them for $10

    Depending on which accessory it is, a bearing or rebuild kit
    for that specific accessory would be cost effective.
    Then again it depends on your budget and the mileage of the
    part in question.
