I'm getting a tapping noise from the top end of my 116k Willy when it fires up from cold but this disappears when warmed up.
So I'm assuming this must be the hydraulic tappets complaining?
I'm running it with 15W/50 Mobil1 if that's of any relavence.
So what exactly is it that goes on the tappets? Do the oilways get clogged and only fill up properly when the oil has warmed up and thinned?
How long a job is this timewise and any clue on the price for a set of new tappets?
Thanks!
