my wife just had the entire fuel system replaced in her jeep ( paid for by her employer,hehe) ..
its a 2000 jeep grand cherokee laredo with the 4.0l sport engine 160K...its always had a slight lifter tick and now this year now that its cold out again the lfter tick is louder than ever. runs great and no smoke and good compression and everything..
can i help reduce the noise by using heavy weight oil? or the rite grade oil but sub in 2 quarts of motor honey for oll?
once i get my bird back im gonna have her drive it for a few days while i pop off the 4.0's valve cover and check stuff out in it..
any other tips to cure lifter tick on this engine
/ its ticking as loud as when my brother vr4 blew up..it does get quieter as it warms up but cold, wholly ~~~~ it tick away and as it revs they get LOUDER..
