Re: clicking
try some seafoam on your car. Might be a sticky lifter or could just be your fuel injectors clicking when they are firing. Injectors can make noise when olderComment

Re: clicking
in MY opinion an engine destroyerOriginally posted by tmon930 View Post
i have no problems using it sucked up through the brake booster line, but when used in the oil it can clean the gunk buildup causing more wear in your engine
but it is used as a cleaner
my engine ticks also, i just figured it was a lifter, i havent really worried about it, been fine for the past 30k milesComment
