Psych0matt Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 check your oil level, and maybe do an oil change. mine gets finicky toward the 3000 mile mark, and ticks until i change the oil Quote
1990lumina Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 I wouldn't owrry too much about it unless it sounds like it's coming from the bottom end of the motor. My 3.1 ticks and slaps like mad all the time with what seems like minimal issues other than annoying the fuck out of me. Quote
hell_raiser Posted October 2, 2007 Author Report Posted October 2, 2007 ok , its soo hard to describe its like after driving it i stoped a gave her a good shot of gas it knocked and took off, its like if u take your tong and rest the tip at the top of ur mouth and exhale but its quick Quote
ns87 Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 It may be a sticky valve? Honestly,I wouldn't worry too much unless you feel your car loosing power. There are some additives at autoparts stores that can help to unstick a valve (or even change the oil earlier than 3000 a couple times). Quote
Andrew Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 ... on the last lil circle for oil when it started to do it. this says it right here. keep your oil level full. Quote
19GT92 Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 :bash: I'm sorry to say it but if you ran it low on oil there is a good chance that you've done damage and that tick your hearing is the start of bigger things to come Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 How long did you run it low on oil? If you ran it long enough, 19GT92 is correct, could lead to bigger problems... Quote
BXX Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 Im pretty sure he has a 3.1L.... Which I wouldn't worry, the bottom end will start hammering sometime soon, why not make it sooner Quote
