Originally posted by Kyler: I still have a weird ticking noise that appears at first startup. I've been concerned that it could be a bearing as well, but it goes away once the car is driven and warmed up. Not sure what the hell it is. Noone else has described this problem. It's always the same speed, doesn't vary, and goes away when the RPMs are increased. It's like a "tack-tack-tack-tack-tack" noise coming from the passenger side of the motor. 97 Zetec.
Before your next oil change use some engine flush and FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. Then refill with QUALITY synthetic oil not the cheapo crap. You probably have gummed up lifters from using cheap oil.
