Chris Davey Forums Junkie Location: sunny coast, qld Registered: October 2002	not so happy chappy :( Thu, 03 June 2004 11:33 Well, after all the hoohaa over my knocking noise we are pretty certain that it is the lifters. My original compression tests were 200 in 1,3,4&5 and 125 in 2 and 175 in 6. Then we did a leak down test and they were all around 12% which is pretty good. So I thought, how can the leak down test be good and the compression be bad. So I redid the compression test and this time all cylinders were at 180-185psi??? So all is good on the internal side of things Then we get the stethischope (spelling, rubber pipe) and listen on the block and you can hear the tapping noise near the front 2 cylinders on the exhaust side so we are 95% sure that it is the lifters. The only explanation we have is that while it has been on the trailer with no oil pressure the oil has run out of them and loosened them up and created the tapping noise. Anyone else ever heard of this happening? So, now I have to pull the cams out and get some new lifters. Anyone know where to get some from and approximately how much? Thanks Very excited and relieved Chris [Updated on: Sun, 06 June 2004 11:28] [Report message to a moderator]
