ticking

Car developed a tick when the car warms up a bit. its not injector ticking sounds like the alternator or something in the middle. It goes away after i drive the car a little bit. Any ideas

Oil pressure at idle on gauge just hooked up is 33 psi. Is that high

Could be a vac leak, make sure the spark plugs are all seated and none backed out. 45psi oil pressure at idle is healthy.

The tick comes and goes

Still not found

is it a 4.6? if so i had a ticking noise that turned out to be a lash adjuster. from what I've read this is a common problem with the 4.6

If it was a lifter wouldnt it do it all the time?

Well it might be time to take it to the shop. Damn thing does it when the car warms up then after driving it 5 mins it goes away wtf

If its a coyote, its normal, don't go chasing it down.

Sounds like a lifter

mustangflanagan · Jul 6, 2014

It only starts to do it when the car fully warms up. Then when i drive for a bit it goes away and sometimes comes back

Fuck this car that is all

Like I said earlier it's sounds like a lash adj (lifter). Mine would come and go and sometimes go days without making a noise. There was no pattern to it. Just figure out which side and replace all of them. That's what the dealer did for me.

Yea i am up in the air either i am gonna cam it and put a bigger blower on it,or trade in for a 13,14

Not trying to be a dick. But you STILL haven't mentioned your year Mustang. So are we supposed to just guess?

In the spirit of being vague, some 4.0 v6s tick sometimes.
