iiihhhh are you sure? holy smack thats the last thing i need. its been like that for a loooooong time. i was thinking about just changing the timing belt tensioner as a lot of people blame tapping noise on it.
tz tz short block. welcome to my world.

I could be wrong, but it sure sounds that way to me.

Maybe someone that does this for a living will chime in. But to fix that on my car, that is what I had to change. Also I was buring oil fast. 1qt pre 1000 miles before it started.

silencertk

well, lol i hope your wrong. normal oil consumption. about 1qt between oil changes 3K - 3.5K miles.

sounds like a tensioner, just change it and see what happens.

I think this is the more likely scenerio. Can we get a list of your modifications?

Thanks,
