Manifolds

[Keg914]

I have a 1995 Nissan Pathfinder. When I first start up, there is a loud ticking sound, almost like one of the lifters is sticking. It only happens for the first 2 or so min. until the engine is warm. Then it goes away. I have been told that it may be the manifolds. Any other opinons?

Thanks.

Not manifolds, But manifold Studs! The Studs for the Exhaust manifolds break on the early year Pathfinders. Not to bad if you have done a few. If not then could be costly. The broken stud has to be drilled out and extracted so a new stud could be installed.
