    See...it just needs to driven more! I had an intermittent tick that was slowly becoming less intermittent over a couple years. Was worried about becoming a problem...but then the bottem end died before the top end had issues. Bet with good oil changes it will go for a long time....or at least until something else goes bad. Good luck

    One quart of automatic transmission fluid added with oil change will usually cure a sticky lifter.
