5.0L (1979-1995) MustangTechnical discussions on 5.0 Liter Mustangs within. This does not include the 5.0 from the 2011 Mustang GT. That information is in the 2005-1011 section.
While my mustang is running there is a clicking coming from the engine. When I rev it up the ticking increases? Any ideas of what to check or what it could be?
The lifters will make noise also if the car hasn't been started for a while. What type of oil are you using in it? When's the last time that it was ran?
ive got a ticking right now and after much investigation into the rockers i found one with slack in the rocker body itself not that it was loose stud and i replaced and fixed it. if a lifter is collapsed,and i know alot of guys are gonna say im nuts about this, but you can put some transmission fluid in the oil for and run it for a fix until you can replace them
