Re: NOISY valve lifter(s) or rocker arm(s)
my dad had this problem. Make sure you use 5W30 and not 10W30 oil. Make sure there is enough oil in the engine. My dad added 1 quart of Amsoil 0W synthetic (added when the engine was one quart low) and the noise went away. The rattling would go on at startup for 3-5 minutes then go away. My dad was using 5W30 and had the problem.
Amsoil and Mobil 1 are the only true synthetic oils I know about. Castrol Syntec is a cracked (split oil molecule by electricity) motor oil and not a true synthetic.
