rachyxx Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 ok, my engine makes a bad loud tapping sound as some of you might know!! after talking to alot of people and having it looked at, it looks like it's the cams!!!

Cyrix Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Should try and keep it off the Redline lol. Get another 1.6 head off a low miliage car, they are usually quite quiet even over 100k if they have had a good life. On yours why not just get a perforamance cam kit. Will most likely be cheaper than getting cams from ford. Also give u an oppertunity to change the cambelt/general topend overhaul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
