1991 300ZX ticking

[jerseypaul2007]

My 1991 twin turbo had a lifter that clicked on and off for 40K miles. They all tick! I had the motor rebuilt and it is almost done. No big deal!

Would Lucas HD oil stabilizer do harm to this engine type?

[dick12goin]

why does it sound like a dirt bike wen u rev it?

[Skyisnotalimit]

Sorry to say, but if those hydraulic lifters beginning to make noise all the time,

you just have to exchange them....

[HabitualEcstasy]

a seafoam treatment fixed this problem for me

[dricacho]

Did u get the issue fixed yet? Mine is doing the same thing.

Yeah, run thicker oil and use your car more. Your lifters will tick in any car and can become loud if you don't drive it often.

Nice amount of fuel :D

theres 24 lifters in a 300zx engine they cost 10 dollars a piece but the labor is expensive and you should only get it worked on at a placed that has a grade A (don't go to elite motor sport in pomona california they're complete rip offs

No need to change any lifters or adjust them.... (Dont think you can) Try a bottle of Marvel Myster Oil, just put it in with your oil. It should quiet them down a bit. Or try a thicker oil, maybe 15w50.

hmmm sounds like a lifter, or your valve adjustment is out. nothing seriose, just a bitch to work on these engines.

[mcwire]

no need to change the lifters, just do a valve adjustment.. and yeah change you're oil more often, consider a higher weight.

[djtalya]

need to change your lifters...and oil more often lol..
