My KA24DE ticks like crazy! My Dad says it's the lifters but im not sure. I already removed my upper chain guide(which was broken). This week I'm gooing to do the seafoam treatment and see if that helps. Has anyone had the same problems? How do you fix this?

what the prob might be is your lifters. just add engine oil treatment. get the can that works for 4 cylinder vehicles. its called "restore" engine treatment. that should take care of it. u can get it at walmart
