I've noticed that my lifters seem noisy during cold operation(25deg f outside)
and when the motor gets up to op. temp. the sound kind of goes away.The best way I can describe the sound is the sound of a jack hammer..almost deisel sounding?I'm running castrol 5w30 w/lucas added.
Do these renix motors always sound like a threshing machine or what?Am I just being a paranoid new dad or will this cam wear in and quiet down?
Another thing I have noticed is a noise that had me thinking exhaust leak at first...but could'nt locate one(new header),then while installing my dynomax muffler I noticed that the noise is kind of resonating through the entire exhaust pipe all the way back to the muffler..... tick tick tick metal raspy sound?Wtf?
Are rebuilt motors noisy untill parts seat in?
