[QUOTE="Sajin, post: 16720561, member: 91822"] Well turns out the oil additive that I added to the oil isn't the cure for the tick that I have. The noise seems to go away, and come back on its own at random. I've had it completely disappear for a month only for it to reappear the following month. Compression and leakdown tests passed as well as oil pressure tests. Valve stem deflection aka head tick? [URL='https://www.svtperformance.com/threads/03-04-cobra-head-tick-explained-by-stiegemeier.668728/']03/04 COBRA HEAD TICK Explained by STIEGEMEIER[/URL] That's gotta be what I have, but how does the issue just come and go as it pleases? Here is what it sounds like now... [URL='https://www.dropbox.com/s/b2wvsn1uth5tq2v/IMG_0330.MOV?dl=0']IMG_0330.MOV[/URL] (tick tick tick, tick tick tick, tick tick tick, tick tick. Then it repeats from the beginning.) Sounds best when played on a cell phone speaker with the volume maxed. On my computer headphones I have to set the equalizer settings as follows to hear it best with the volume turned up... [ATTACH type="full" alt="awawawawa.png"]1734725[/ATTACH] Currently it isn't making the noise, but that is what it sounds like when it comes back. [/QUOTE]
