Try a different weight motor oil, one that will lube the lifters better when hot. Also use a quieting additive to quiet lifters.

Does a 1986 Nissan 300zx have hydraulic lifters?

Yes, 12 of them. Typically one will go bad and tick. If you're going to replace one, replace them all. Can get all 12 on ebay motors for ~$150. Replacing them all will prevent problems down the road.


How do you adjust headlights on a 1990 300zx?

Well it depends what you mean by "adjust". Since I think you mean angle, there was a kit issued with a lot of ZXs that was made for adjusting the lense in a grey foam container beside the spair. Lots of odd looking circle stuff and suction cup like things. elitearmageddon@hotmail.com Owner of a 1990 300zx Custom N/A (once non-turbo) Converted to Twin Turbo (in under 600.00)
