Something under hood is farting

Serious, no joke. After I drive her, 3.4 stock, there is a hummmmm, Pause. Huuuuuuuuuuum. It does this for 30-60 minutes. I will upload video to YouTube. I recently installed motor but it did it before too. Video will be up soon. But turn volume up.

Yep, they do that sometimes. Yota had a service note on that. My 96 did for a while, but the part they added to the box next to the fuse box, cured it.
Did you try a search here on that?

Ok cool. I thought it could be normal, but after motor changeout, it still did it.

Thanks! Other than this she runs better than ever.
