what is the problem sorry I must of missed your old thread. I thought I had valve or lifter problems once, really sounded like it for sure, higher rpms it went away. It turned out my damn dipstick tube was loose and was vibrating slightly...I dobut thats it but worth a chance looking for that sorta thing. I could of sworn it was lifters or valves even my mechanic said that at first then we busted out a copper tube (hollow) and put it to your ear to pinpoint where the noise is comming from...

im tired as hell and prob sound retarded but good luck

pretty much everyone is in agreement, that it is either a lifter or a valve hitting, now that i think back when my lifter collapsed that is exactly what it sounded like.

if you can compress them by hand, they aren't doing their job.

I would take it in before you have a real failure.
Dont take this the wrong way, but your in a lil over your head. You have def gave it your best shot, just hate to see it get worse and I can assure you at this rate it will!

Also stangnet isnt the best place to get tech info...you need to go ask some local mechanics (any car buddies local?) or do some of the things I recc in your other thread.
Seems you keep asking but dont do any of the recc.

You do the leak down?
Re-do the rockers?

How do you compress a lifter?



Did you mean the rocker?
