ya mine sounded like 1 or two lifters were sticking... But the oil change really did quiet it down... alot... No really tingy sounding ones anymore... Just a mild chatter of valvetrain,,, LOL.... It seems to be inhearant to the motor itself... They go wellll over 200 K thiough without issue regularly... Im going to wait till halfway through the winter before fucking with them... It quieted down alot to where its really not noticable anymore, or at least it doesnt sound BAD..... it did befoire and I was told that its the norm for that motor.
LOL
Mines got really peppy engine response for having the 31x10.50s on it... SOOO much more power than the ranger.
In 4 low its awesome!!!!
