    Lifter Tick

    My car has a ticking noise whenever i press on the gas it gets faster. I was told it was a lifter tick and i was wondering how it happened? is it bad? and how can i make it stop? It really annoying especially if i go to a drive thru and it echoes all over the place

    thanks guys

    Use AMSoil and AMSoil filters. I have never had the problem since using AMSoil.

    Also i asked a mechanic a while back and he said put some kind of liquid that u can buy in autozone in the oil place so i did and the ticking stopped a while and its back and said put the AMsoil wouldnt that be to much in the oil tank? cause the bottle i put in said to put 50-100%
