Hi There Fellow Ford Owners
Im Only New To This Forum Just Thought Id Thow This One Out There. I Have a 2002 AU3 Falcon I6 Auto 93000 kms I Bought secondhand from local Ford dealer Sold and serviced from NEW. after i bought it and had the first sevice done by them i noticed a ticking lifter when engine was hot only at about 1200 RPM the oil from new has been Castrol Magnatec FMX 10w-30. After they serviced the second time it was still there so i took it back and let them listen to it they seemed to think that when it was serviced it must have stired up some 'Crap' in oil wich must have got stuck in a lash adjuster but it should clear itself. 20000 klms Later its still there and ive tryed Nulon lifter free and tune up didnt work. Used Castrol Edge 0w-40 oil No Differrent Shell Helix Ultra 5w-40 Great oil But still have that Damn ticking lash Adjuster and im ready to pull the rocker cover off and all the rocker gear and inspect all the lash adjusters and clean them out. Any Last Ideas Would Be Appreciated. |
