Sticky lifter & marvel

[5kittle5]

I went thru my car a few nights ago and was checking over my vac lines, put my intake back on, hooked up the battery, turned on the car... wicked engine knock. Scared the HELL outta me! After some investigation I noticed the knock quit after the engine warmed up and it was REALLY inconsistent when my car was cold. Found out the symptoms were of a lifter/valve issue. My oil was about a quart down, its almost time for an oil change so I grabbed some marvel mystery oil to clean up the lifters and I put some in the gas to clean the injectors out. Im in love love love! Worked great, so far so good, no engine noise and car is running nicely. In case you might not have heard, I bought my car almost a year ago and I've been trying to clean it up cuz the previous owner took REALLY poor care of it. So I guess I wasnt too surprised about this problem...

Side note: I was in DTM last night when my hubby was getting a mid pipe and high flows put on the mustang and Chris the mechanic was telling us about an SRT that was in there a couple days before us. He said the guy had put a diesel turbo on his neon and it was doing about 650 whp. Very nice. Hoping to run into the guy. I guess the guys at DTM called it a neon and he got pretty pissed
