Lifter tick

Anyone found a cure for the inevitable/incessant lifter tick that developes in the 3000GT's?

Recently added a lifter tick additive that has improved condition but not cured it.

Change the oil and put fresh aditive in. Usually it takes like 300 miles to totally take effect

...and 6G72 engines in the 3000gt/Stealth's.

Proper oil changes with a quality oil have kept my lifter (lash adjuster) tick to a minimum...and usually only on start-up, if at all.

New/Revised lifters haha. They went up in price since they put them in the Evo's. But "Seafoam" has worked well for alot of people.
