so here it is, a 1999 ford expedition with almost 200,000 miles on it, it runs smooth and l love the truck, but problem is it makes this tapping noise on cold start for like 5 or 10mins, after talking to some mechanics I was told it could be the lifters or the exhaust manifold, SO I bought all new lifters and got them installed and the next day the tapping noise was still there so I took it to a guy that works on exhaust and mufflers and he looked at my exhaust manifold and eve tho it had hair line crack on it he told me its not the exhaust manifold making that noise and told me to go back to whoever put the lifters in it and ask them why its still making noise, I’m lost if its not the exhaust and got new lifters then WHY IS IT STILL MAKING TAPPING NOISE???? Could it be because I didn’t get the motorcraft brand lifters? Or maybe the cam is worn out? The mechanic said it was worn out but he didn’t sound like it was that bad, or is the guy that works on exhaust wrong? Because the mechanic that put the lifters in told me to put my hand under the exhaust manifold and I felt hot air escaping or could it be the timing belt or chain and if it is wouldn’t it make that noise all the time instead of for only 10mins? And I have some mechanics told me not to even worry about it because most ford trucks do that when they get that many miles and it was nothing to worry about at all. so what do y’all think????
Ps. By the way I tried lucas oil treatment and anti-drainback filters.
the engine is 4.6L
yes the lifters were soaked in oil for 24hrs, and i was told by the mechanic that it didnt have a rocker and the cams just snapped on.
is it time to buy rebuilt engine? or can i drive this one for another 100,000miles? other than the tapping noise it drives smooth and don’t lose power and shifts smoothly.

This would normally result in losing over 0 in oil to replace a plug. If this has happened to you, the shop-vac method will save the day. With the engine off, hook the shop-vac hose to the oil fill tube, turn the shop vac on, and the oil plug can easily be removed without losing a single drop of oil! It is that simple and will work with all makes/models of trucks and cars. You don’t have to be fast when changing the plug, you can see how he puts his hand up against the oil pan to show the amount of suction the vacuum is pulling. It really is that simple and works that well! Stay tuned for more *HOT TIP* videos and instructional coming soon.
i decided to go with some greasy synthetic 0w40 for the cold weather and got a rust spot patched up kinda fixed up just to stop it from rusting further thanks for watching!
Video from early this year of me and ChevroletBowtie getting very frustrated with my 2002 Ford Focus that had a dropped valve seat. Yes im aware this video is immature and stupid, i was quite an immature idiot back then. Anyone that needs advice about a dropped valve seat in their 2000-2004 Ford Focus with the 2.0L SPI (Split Port Injection) SOHC engine you may drop a comment stating your question or issue. The 2.0L SPI in the 2000-2004 Focus is one of the most defective engine designs ever made. My 2002 Focus here was in near mint condition and had 154k miles it was very well maintained. These motors can, and will, drop a valve seat and destroy the entire engine at no given time for no given reason even if you take the best care of them. do NOT leave a comment saying that Chrysler’s 2.7L V6 is the worst engine ever. it is not. if you take good care of those motors and use synthetic oil, they are great motors. These SPI’s are garbage and they will blow up no matter how good you take care of them. It reminds you of the GM 2.4L Quad 4 that spins rod bearings around 100-120k miles. These SPI’s will drop a valve seat as early at 80k miles. Junkyards consider used cylinder heads for these cars as “gold”. I ran as far as 100 miles from my house to junkyards all over the creation to find a used cylinder head for this car. No luck. Many of the junkyards got pissed off when I asked them if they had one of these cylinder heads, they stated they get several calls a day of people …
Lake Speed of Joe Gibbs Driven gives us the rundown on their new line of engine oils specifically formulated for GM LS engines and Ford Modular Engines. Jessica Barton got the insight from Lake – who explained their two new oils. “LS30″ which is a 5-30W Full Synthetic that Lake told us is specifically formulated for the needs of LS engines in the Camaro, CTS-V, and Corvette. For the Ford Modular enthusiast, Joe Gibbs driven has introduced the FR-20, a 5W-20, which is a difficult formula to make, according to Gibbs, but their NASCAR experience helped them create a high temp, high load capable oil filled with zinc additives.

This Volkswagen Jetta GLS is a new car trade, it was owned by the wife of a Cardiologist who took excellent care of it. They had the oil changed every 5k mi and only used full synthetic oil. It only has 77k miles on it never been in an accident. I had it painted (base color w/clear coat) because of some faded paint on the hood and roof see the before and after pics below. I am sure you will be very impressed with it. It was just fully serviced and a few minnor things were fixed, it has a clean bill of health and needs only a new owner. Your first scheduled maintenance is an oil change in 5k miles! I am including a 3month 3000 mile warranty with my asking price, so you can have peace of mind. Thanks for your interest in this very nice car. Please call, text or email Tommy @ 321-363-6162
