So a buddy of mine changed his own oil the other day and accidently left the old gasket from the filter on when he put the new filter and gasket on. So needless to say it didnt hold pressure and oil went everywhere when he went to drive it. he only drove about 20-30 yards before he noticed and immediately pulled over and fixed the problem. But he drove around with about 2-3 qts of oil in his car for about 4 days. Now his car makes a ticking noise when he barely pushes the gas pedal. But when he is above 3k rpm the ticking isnt as noticable. Some think that is might be a bad spot in the lifter or the whole lifter itself. Also heard that it might be an exhaust leak, but i doubt it. Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be? Any help is appreciated:thumbsup:
