I have recently got the 4.0 from my 97 xj running after three years.
It is basically a stock rebuild. I am having a nasty lifter tick that is not going away.
I ran some seafoam through the crank case with no luck in getting the lifter un-stuck.
I really do not want to ruin a complete rebuild because of a stuck lifter. Any suggestions on how to get this fixed without replacing the lifters?
The truck is not driveable yet so i only have the luxury of running it in park.
Im probably looking at close to $150-$200 to get the head off and replace the lifters, not that I am not willing to do the work but it would be better if it didnt HAVE to happen.
Any suggestions would be great.
