Default Lifter tick in wj 4.7

Just figured I let people know if anyone was having the same problem I've had a tick in my engine for the past 40,000 miles so I did alittle reading and found that replacing the PVC valve fixed it just did it tonight after Super Bowl and was amazed that a $4 part and NO tools fixed suck an annoying problem engines running smother to!

You pull the hoes going into the oil fill up. And twist down and pull out its tight to get you hand in with the battery but doable and then the new one goes back in

So it connects to the neck of the oil filler? I think that's where mine is making a noise and rattling

I know about this part where ur talking about that's a 90 degree elbow coming from this area. It vibrates a lot and makes this noise but I'm not sure if it's what your talking about.
