93 xg top end ticking

[fatboyslim 2]

hi guys

 

my 93 xg has a loud ticking and is very slugish.

when it is started (starts perfectly and new starter) has a very loud ticking in thee top end at the back of the head tick loud for 15-30 secs then u can hear it slowly get quieter till it is a very quiet but still there, after another 30-60 sec gets even fainter. if u try drive before it has stopped this process the ticking is super loud and u can feel the motor like rocking around.

once its done its thing and ur driving u can always hear a ticking.

all so it seams a bit slugish dont get me wrong it can pull a loaded trailer but its a ute when empty i should be able to wiggle the back end a bit. when u put ur foot down it goes but not like it wants to i dont know how t explain it.

new plugs and leads

all oils 

petrol filer 

starter motor

where should i start with ticking sounded like oil wasnt getting ther quick enugh so changed it to  10/30 helped a tiny bit but no

where should i start

Sounds like dirty lifters, try an oil flush, drop all the oil after, new filter and try some oil around 20W50 or 20W60. I use Penrite HPR 30 in mine now.
Just do the flush because its usually crud stuck in the lifter makes them noisey.
If that doesnt fix it.....new lifters, can do it at home easy peasy.
