Milesk Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Car is a 1.8K series - hydraulic lifters, VVC head Oil pressure fine, engine is strong, pulls really well. On tick over engine is very quiet. However not always but at 40 to 50 miles per hour your can hear a distinct ticking noise this was its first outing for over 5 months, engine bedding in??? Any ideas??

Milesk Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 I agree go faster - Sod it, I will just keep going until blows, then it will give me a good excuse to rebuild, said this last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
