My car is a little lumpy on tick over at lights and when stopped in traffic.I have read that this is a common fault with this car. I recently put Shell V-Power fuel in and noticed I got about 3-4 MPG better fuel economy and the revs appeared alot higher on tick over and it seamed to prevent the...

As soon as I turned the key to "ON", then I get this odd noise, a bit like a tick, a bit like an internittant buzz. It's not the cabin temp sensor, and the noise stops when I unplug the ACC (nope the noise ain't coming directly from the ACC unit). I seem to remember something about a voltage...

Hi all, I have got this really weird noise coming from my engine. It basically goes tick tick tick stop tick tick tick stop. When it starts ticking each tick gets louder and louder then it stops for a few seconds and then starts again. I guessing that this is probably the hydrolic tappets but...

My engine used to tick for about thirty seconds after startup. All of a sudden, the ticking has remained constant (it doesn't stop). 3 questions: 1) Is it likely the valve tappets? 2) Could it be the timing chain? 3) How long can I run like this? Its an '86 9000 turbo with 335,000km on it...
