Hi guys.
My car started using oil. I seems to leak from the back part of the engine onto the manifold, so some morning I drive in a cloud of smoke coming from the engine. :-(
I think I can probably just tighten the head... But I'll have a decent look at it.
Another thing that's bothering me is a loud ticking noise from the tappets. I think it's a hydraulic lifter, but it's making a lot of noise. More than sounds healthy. It almost sounds like a diesel motor now.
This ticking sound intensified since my last oil change, where I used Castrol Edge (i think...) oil.
What oil would you recommend I use for the next fill-up?
Thanks.
