How do you fix a sticking lifter on a Chevy 350 engine?
Often a sticking lifter is cause by sludge that has built up inside the lifter. If that's the case a good engine cleaner can often help, or even just add a quart of diesel fuel or kerosene to the crankcase and let it idle for a while, but if you do that, don't put any stress on the engine. Then change the oil and run it for about 300 miles and change the oil again. That CAN help some sticking lifters... but don't count on it. Often the only option is to change the lifters and if the camshaft is pitted, you may need to change that too. If you're going that far, check everything and do a complete rebuild.

The engine is making a ticking noise when the rpm goes above 2000 the noise starts to fade away after a while and is louder when the engine is cold any ideas?
This sounds like a hydraulic valve lifter that is dirty, sticking and is not getting enough oil to lubricate the lifter. After the engine warms up and the oil pressure is stable, the lifter begins to get enough oil and quiets down. Try changing your oil and use a lighter weight oil like 10/W/30. After 2500 miles return to your former vescosity oil.
