I have a 89 ranger with a 2.9l that recently had new lifters dropped in. We thought the tapping sound was from the lifters but its still here. We adjusted the lash on the rocker arms because some were fully screwed in and others were almost all the way out. My oil pressure gauge is the stock gauge but it flaps back and forth when the engine has been running for 5 minutes, but only at idle does it spaz. The heads werent cracked and the engine has no sludge in the top end. Idk the kms on the engine cause the last owner swapped it. only when its real bad that I can hear it when I have my foot down.
The I cant figure out why I still have the lifter noise.
please help
