Valve train

[jojomanx]

Im having alot of valve train noise after I installed an engine that was sitting around for years.
How long does it take for the hydrolic lifters to charge up after a long sitting?

By the way, I have aquired alot of engine parts (more than I need).

All the parts are from 81 to 82 fuel injection, manifold, AFM, FP regulators.....just about everything that sits on top of the engine plus 1 clutch set.

Cheap!

email me for pictures

add 1 qt of Marvel Mystery oil to the oil and run the engine drive the car this should assist in freeing up the lifters

Ive had real good luck with Risilone for quieting noisy valve trane in a variety of engines. My dad introduced me to the stuff about 25 years ago.

I used the Marvel Mystery on a noisy motor and it took maybe 30 minutes before it started to really reduce the noise. Kind of a three stage, first started very noisy, but got less scary within a minute or so, added MM and let it fully warm up, and big reduction within 30 min, but may have taken a day or so to fully quiet down.

BTW the loud clicking sound are the injectors, they all open and close at the same time, which makes a fair amount of noise.

CIS injection system makes noise?

I do have spare 81-82 injection, manifold, AFM parts for cheap.

Not that I know of, just electronic.
