RE: Valvetrain Ticking Please Help!

Make sure you do not have a bent pushrod that is hitting the intake manifold (remove bushrod a roll on a piece of glass). Some OE and aftermarket intakes have very little clearance in these areas, so it will not take much of a bend to cause contact. Also, if the tick is from the front cylinder and you are running low oil pressure (15# or less) then it could be a lifter tapping. The front lifters are the last to receive oil pressure, to resolve run heavier weight oil in summer.
This thread, so far...
