I had a HGF so got it all done.
New belts, gaskets, valve seals, oil, oil filter, and all new tappets.
Before the HGF the engine sounded fine.
Now I have put new tappets in it wont stop ticking, and the oil pressure light comes on and off whenever it likes.
It tends to come on when the revs are below 2000 but after it has been on the motorway it quitens down and the light stays off for a while then drops back to loud ticking and the light being on.
Anybody have any ideas? I dont want to go down the road of taking the oil pump off just yet.
