ticking sound
Anybody have any ideas...my 89 xj has a ticking right under the front of the valve cover. As it warms up the ticking will come and go...and it is pretty loud. I understand I cannot adjust the valves..any miracle oil I can add or ? thanks

I'd say pull the valve cover off and take a look under there to see whats up. It will take only a few min. to take it off, but you should replace the gasket while you're at it. But I'd say Sticking lifters sounds likely
