Engine knocking

[Swifty1638]

I used a friend's tool that prys against the camshaft to depress the valvesprings a little bit-enough to release tension off the rockers, to pull them out, and remove the lifters. It's not hard at all. And, the tool prys against the "rough" surface on the camshaft, and NOT the used surfaces, like the lobes. It's really not hard to do at all.

We stock redline fluids.

Before you go swapping lifters try a different oil (Shell Rotella-T or Chevron Supreme 10W-30 is my recommendation if you want a conventional oil, or Castrol Syntec or Redline if you go synthetic); and definitely use a Mitsu filter.

*edit* Use whatever weight is recomended in your owner's manual, I said 10W-30 based on the 4G63 engine.

Thanks for all the tips.
I try using different types of oil first before checking on the lifters.
