Lifter Problem?
04 F-150 5.4L Lariat 4x4.
This is my first 5.4L Ford F-150 with 33356 miles. The motor is making a loud ticking noise when at idle. maybe it could be a lifter? What I'm wanting to know is if the ticking noise is normal? It seems to be louder when it is warmed up. I have a '98 F-150 4.6L Lariat and it is not this loud. On the '04 the motor is not idling rough. Could I hook it up to diagnostics to tell me any problems? Any help on what to do would be great.
Thanks
