  • noisey lifter tick, switch to a thinner oil, 5w30synth mobile1 is what i use plus mobile one filter

  • try some lucas oil treatment.

  • Run a full quart of Rislon in it with your other quarts of oil...it may go away.

  • @ chazm tanny fluids are high on detergents and it can help, but it only a 3.0 liter that much trans fluid would make the oil way to thin try a little less. temporary fix at best though.

  • this is just a lifter tick.. normal 6g72 mitsu engine :)

  • pretty sure its a lifter

  • if its running really rich it can also be the mass air flow sensor!

  • they are really easy to change! "BLUE POINT" makes the special tool you need to push the valve down. you have to push the valve spring down to relieve the pressure from the rocker arm. the rocker arm somes off and the the lifters just pull out.

  • Yea, i got a rebuilt engine and upon inspection i saw it came with 3mm bore lifters... its not a myth though lol it helps significantly!!

  • If you have a SOHC engine then you cant upgrade to 99 lifters you just need to buy new ones. Thats easy, you can do the 6 front lifters in about 30 minutes. The back 6 you have to take off the intake plenum to get to.

    On a DOHC if you upgrade to the 99 lifters its not too much more work but it is more work. I would double work time so say about 6 hours
