2003 v6 90000 miles lifter tap for 3-5 min when i frist start it ? Purchase a can of Seafoam Motor Treatment and follow the directions on the can. This will free the stuck lifter. Seafoam helps liquefy gum and varnish deposits helping to quiet noisy valve lifter
Yes it can, but try to isolate the sound by using some thicker weight oil and/or oil additive like lucas to quiet the ticking lifter. If the noise doesn't change it's probably an exhaust leak, if it quiets down you might have a collapsed lifter.
Goodyear Tracker 2 tires can be purchased from Walmart. These tires hug the road securely and are an exceptional value for their high quality. They are also very quiet.
For noisy hydrolic lifters (eg Mitsubishi etc) Get some : PRO-MA MBL8 OIL ADDITIVEThis stuff works great and keeps them quiet for about 5000km in my turbo lancer
Probably a bad camshaft.
In the book "Tracker" by Gary Paulsen, similes are figures of speech that compare two things using "like" or "as." For example, "he ran like the wind" and "he was as quiet as a mouse." Similes help to create vivid images and enhance the reader's understanding of the text.
My '91 has a new engine, but they used the old head without a rebuild. I had some lifter noise, which is normal with the 4.0. Recently it became a little noisier, and I drained a pint of oil, replacing it with a pint of Marvel Mystery Oil. Within 30 miles it was much quieter. From what I understand, MMO has solvents that clean out the gunk that cleans out the passageways in the lifters allowing them to maintain pressure. I would bet that almost any lifter solvent/cleaner would do the same thing. I use MMO because it's worked for me before.
Is this coming from the engine? If it is it sounds like you might have some lifter problems. Or the worse part is if you have a rod knocking. Intrepids did have some egine problems.
Keep clean oil in the crank case, and adding 1 quart of Lucas oil stabilizer in place of 1 quart of oil on the change will quiet them right down and improve oil pressure.
The oil change usually helps quiet the lifter noise. You could replace all 16 hydraulic lifters if it really bothers you. Most Miata owners just live with it. Try 10W/30 oil.
ticking noise is usually "lifter noise". if this noise increases in speed when accelerating then it is "lifter noise". just change your oil.and or maitain proper oil level.try using a medium to thick oil 20/30 20/50 , there is a product call lucas which also helps your oil lubricate the engines moving parts easier. i have use it, and it works , it takes a few miles but it works.
