if your car needs major work done to it don't spend a fortune fixing it but usually you can drive the car "into the ground" meaning until it dies with normal maintance like oil changes and that stuff with the lifters being bad. what you should do when you hear the noise from the lifters starting take your foot off the gas for a minute and then slowly give it more gas.
Usually when someone is talking about lifters with cars they are talking about the hydraulic lifters inside the engine that come in contact with the cam and lubricate the push rods that control the valves in each individual cylinder. Sometimes I've heard people mention lifters when talking about the struts used by some folks to raise or lower their car or even to "bounce' the car.
It will F@#! your car up real bad.
your car will not start
Not changing the oil often enough
Usually a "Clicking" sound.
Probably not, a 2001 Windstar usually has hydraulic lifters that never need adjusting it could be a bad valve spring, or a bad lifter that will need to be replaced.
