Re: 2g Lifters - knocking and ticking

You could have just added to your other post about oil burnage and not made a whole new thread to a possibly similar cause.

If you never noticed ticking before then lifters should not be the culprit.

When the car is cold and you start it, is the ticking super loud and then after the oil circulates and the engine warms up for a few minutes, does the ticking get quieter?

You car should have the new revised lifters in it already, as its a 2G, but I think they revised them again in like 99? 1G lifters are even worse for sound.

If it just happened after you were out and about boosting there might be another problem inside your engine. Are you monitoring knock? What kind of boost are you running?? We need details, becuase not all of us know what kind of car, mods etc you have.
