Lifter Tick 428 |
By Rick - 11/18/2002 7:24:02 PM; IP 12.250.134.113 |
428 CJ (hydraulic Cam / lifter) rebuilt motor 5000 miles ago. Shortly after rebuild (500 miles or so) it started having a severe lifter tick when motor hot and restarted, but only lasts a minute or so. I replaced the oil pump with a Melling HP+HV pump - alittle better but still there (it did pull the pressure up from 18 at hot idle to 26 and from 40 hot 2000 RPM to 65. I have tried several wghts of oil including synthetic - same results . I have changed lifters - same results I know oil press is a hereditary problem on the FE's BUT THIS IS AGGRIVATING ! Do you know the solution ? |
