engine noise
 

Looking at replacing my motor. One motor I'm looking at makes alot of noise just wondering if anyone might know what the noise is. video is now up.

Video is now up.

Anyone wanna take a guess

Sounds like normal miata lifter tick to me. What oil are you running?

Not my motor. I was looking to buy this one. The seller said it was making a loud noise and thought it might be a spun bearing or somthing along those lines.

Does it go away after a few minutes? I'm saying filthy liftrr assembly, made worse from a thick oil that was being used to get rid of the noise. Maybe...

He told me it did not go away. It got a little less noisy but never went away. Oil was 10w30.

What in the fuck video did you watch?

Doesn't sound like any lifter tick to me.

What's your opinion

Stay away.

cell phone vid. Oh gawd, I just listened to it on my computer. I retract all statements that I had previously made.

used jdm engine is around $300, might as well replace it then wont have to worry about future problems of it coming back etc
