    hi, well, cleaned my injectors this morning. found 3 clogged injectors. runs a hell of alot better now.
    readjusted all the valves. i still have a tick on cylinder 4 .. its a higher tick, i am thinking its a bad lifter.
    new everything except for the damn lifters.. can't notice an exhaust leak around the area..

    my issue is i need to get the car running, drivable so i can get it moved.. this is coming down to the wire.

    i am hoping there is somebody in the memphis / williston tn area that could help me fix this once and for all.. ill make it worth somebodys time.

    thanks

    swap an injector from the other side with that one and see if the tick moves with the injector...
