Ok my drivers side bank has been clicking ....I found a few lash adjusters bad worn out or locked up so I changed them all on that bank. I have oil comming out of them and the camshaft.... I cleaned all the bores and holes does anybody have a oil schematic for a 4.7 2003 model ....maybe I have a check valve hung..... it clicks pretty heavy at startup but after a while it goes away... im stumped oil pressure shows fine all though im going to check it with a gauge. give me some Ideas please

 

well i am having the same issue after the new install and i been reading around and everyone is blaming the ticking sounds from the exhaust manifolds bolts and gaskets. I did check mine and i don't see any carbon around as a sign of leaks but i hear people solving their issue with a gasket change. As far for me i am starting to head towards my main rod bearing to make sure. If you here any thing or solved your problem let me know my email is venom3971@yahoo.com
