Message: Perhaps the fan cluth, or maybe the harmonic balancer? Does it stop once the engine is warm?

Message: John Milner.
Pardon my ignorance but may be you can answer my question. What is the harmonic balancer? The reason I ask this is because I have notice a weir noise in my dak when cold that the only way I can describe it is like a vacumm or pumping tap at the same rythm as a lifter noise w/out the knocking or pinging. I don't know if I'm being clear enough.

Message: well once i start the truck the noise is at its loudest point, then after i drive and the engine doesnt read cold anymore, it appears to be gone. but then after it sits and i start it up, there is that same noise, i guess my problem is similar to FredDQC's problem, could it be a lifter?
