Haha. Give em a weird look back. Tell em stop looking at your diesel truck that runs on gas. Don't worry too much about it. I seen and heard the volkswagen guys idle. Most of em sound like the tdi model. Even when they have the 1.8 turbo model. Thoughs are loud.
I did in my old single cab, the ticking is on my new macrocab with a 2.6. The 4g63 is back i'm my garage and my old truck is getting ready to go to.pick n pull.Originally Posted by LethalEthan
i hate the Tapets (lifters) in the Mits engines
so i replaced mine with adjustable rocker arms
2.6l i got them out of a Ram Van
2.4l i pulled them out of an 2.0l
and i save oil pressure
Thanks I am gonna see if I find any at pick n pull tomorrow.
Have you replaced the valve seals, and valve guides or just the lifters? I would look into new valves, seals, and guides. They are fairly cheap. The exhaust valves you might have a little difficulty finding. I think i ended up having to order mine online, cause Orielly's didnt carry them anymore.
i wouldnt worry about re bleeding them with something different.....some people dont even bleed them......they will "pump up" on their own if you let it run long enough.....check oil pressure, make sure the pressure is correct.....i dont know what it sould be....cam might be worn some...how many miles on engine.....i dont think ive seen many mitsu trucks that didnt tick at idle...lol..Actually running a detergent thru the engine might be in the right direction...oil passages might be restricted some and not forcing correct amount of oil to the lash adjusters.....
The only thing ive bought were hydrualic lash adjusters. The ticking isn't really bad at idle, its when im driving. I've already ran some cleaners/detergents through it, it helped them stay quiet for a few days then it came back. I don't want to buy any new parts per the reason I stated a few posts ago. Im just going to not worry about it, I've already bled them a bunch of times, cleaned the rocker arms and their oil passages, etc so im just saying screw it. Goin to throw some new oil (a little thicker viscosity) and filter and and be done with it.
