Re: Ticking Noise. Camshaft area. (94Rabbit)
Mine ticks at startup. After a minute or so it goes away. Once oil gets to it, it shuts up. What size cam are you running? Did you upgrade your valve springs? You may not have needed to, I think OBD1 cars already have tougher springs. (correct me if I'm wrong PLEASE) I'd go with an oil change and see if that helps. You could also take the head off and have a valve job done. That would stop the ticking and ensure that you're not looking at major work down the road. Just think, if you take the head off, you could get it ported and polished
There's an excuse if I've ever heard one. "Honey, the cam is making some noise. I don't wanna cause any damage, so I'm gonna get it fixed right away." Hope this helps.
