Update... Thanks again.
It almost died when towing again. It started running rough when hot and he slowed down and it almost died. He was towing again.
The valves are noisy, they sound like they need adjustment (valve tick). There is also a different louder tap/is oscillation that shows up intermittently. He has been sifting through forums seeing a slew of opinions. Best guess would be related to variable valve timing.
All these sensors are miles ahead of my knowledge base... It doesn't sound like anything is majorly wrong.
He tried some 'Sea Foam' no change yet. Afterwards, 'water' was dripping from various points along exhaust.
BTW, it's got an aftermarket exhaust. The Magna-flow exhaust isn't loud at idle... Haven't heard it on the highway
