chadz34 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 Just got the car out of storage about 4 days ago. It's been running better everyday. I happened to notice its a little ticky at idle....I don't know if it's always done this, but it's only at idle, and it's not real loud either. Quote
wickedbuick Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 Maybe injector noise? Does it have any kind of intake on it? You'll hear top end noise more if you have one too. Quote
chadz34 Posted June 16, 2010 Author Report Posted June 16, 2010 OMG thanks for the quick response.....I opened the oil cap and it sounds like its in there.....I dunno. I'm actually freakin out a little bit everyone on this forum knows about this car. It's babied. I'm stressed. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 The thing sits all the time, might just need some time for the lifters to get all lubricated again. Quote
RobertISaar Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 The thing sits all the time, might just need some time for the lifters to get all lubricated again. considering the noises some of the early LQ1s make after being run hard due to lack of lifter lubing, i'll have to agree... Quote

Thanks so much Matt and Rob.....I put some STP oil treatment in it. Seems to have went away....definately freaked me out tho. Thanks again! Quote
White93z34 Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 Dono how long its been since a oil chance, but that could help. Plus the early LQ1s make a ticking noise from the old style injectors. Quote
