What is the best was to quiet lifter noise on a 1991 Jeep Wrangler with a 4.0 engine?
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.

Well most of the time its due to the cam size,on most race engines the cam lobes keep the valves open longer..Compression is also a factor,and including exhaust or turbo/super chargers.. hope this helps. A lack of mufflers would also account for the noise level.
