Default 4.0 lifter noise

i havent had my jeep to long its a 88 with the 4.0 with 130k on it. After it warms up it has a slight tick to the motor. if u let it idle it goes away and comes back sometimes. or if u rev it slightly it goes away aswell. the jeep runs great. i dont think its nothing to worry about. Just seeing if you had any ideas? sometimes it dont do it at all.
